North/South Lobby of Orange County Convention Center
The Advanced Engineering Technology Conference (AETC) held each year in Orlando before the start of the PRI Trade Show is the oldest and most respected series of seminars on building race engines. Each year, hundreds of professional race engine builders arrive in Orlando early to take in all the AETC has to offer on cutting edge race engine technology tips and the 1,100-plus exhibitors in the PRI Trade Show all in one big week.
Just as important as the seminars is the opportunity for race engine builders to meet and get to know others in their same profession from around the US.
"Give us three days, and you will discover more unpublished influential information than you could find in months at the race tracks," say AETC organizers. "If you would like the opportunity to discuss and/or find out solutions, this is the conference you cannot miss. During the AETC, there is always a time to meet and discuss your issues with the speakers, leaders in our industry and fellow attendees. The relaxed atmosphere and comradery of the attendees will help you surely meet resources you can use in the future."
"Circle Track Racing Engine Technology" is the theme for the 2010 event, held at the Orange County Convention Center, where the PRI Trade Show is held. receive an early registration discount of 10% by signing up before June 1.

Last year, the 20th Annual Advanced Engineering Technology Conference kicked off the 2009 Performance Racing Industry Trade Show week with a three-day in-depth conference about the Ford Modular engine technology. "The Ford Modular engine is a new generation of the Ford internal combustion engines and all the best experts, engineers who are involved with the modular motor come here and we talk about modifying them for racing, so this is kind of a think tank for engine guys," added Dave Gorman, Intellitec College, Colorado Springs, Colorado.
"In here the truth comes out – what to do and mostly what not to do so racing engines survive," Gorman continued. "In this day and age, it's not hard to build 1000 horsepower, but what is hard is trying to keep it together."
"It's a very passionate group here," added Scooter Brothers, part-organizer of the AETC. "We're focusing on the late model Ford engines, and the people who are into that particular segment of the market are very passionate about what they do."
With the high caliber of speakers, the AETC attendees learned everything they needed to know about the Ford modular motor. "This is about the eighth conference I've been to and this one is probably one of the more informative ones because it's got more and more in-depth detail on the Ford modular engines," noted Michael Evans, Powertrain Engineering, Allen Park, Michigan.
"This year I think we've had as strong of panel of speakers as we've ever had, and that's partially in part to the credibility that the conference has gotten and that's partially due to our relationship with PRI because it instantly gave it some credibility and made people want to be a part of it. I'm looking forward to a great year next year," Brothers concluded.
