Solutions By John Kilroy on May 14, 2012 This will be the 25th year that the PRI Trade Show has been delivering business opportunities for racing entrepreneurs. And right now, from the Art and Editorial Departments on the first floor, through the Expo Department on the second floor, to the Sales offices on the third floor, the building housing PRI is buzzing with activities that will result in a 2012 PRI Trade Show guaranteed to offer you, the racing professional, more solutions to your motorsports challenges than you can find anywhere.

Penrite had an iPad locked into a metal casing connected to metal shelving displaying its performance lubricants. The iPad was a dynamic, interactive way for Penrite to tell its story. The buyer could scroll up and down, and hit links, but never leave the Penrite site. We anticipate seeing more iPads being used this way.
