Once again, we'll be traveling to the PRI Show in Indianapolis this Thursday through Saturday. Want to stop by, introduce yourself, and gab for a bit? Come on by booth 3133. There will always be someone at the booth, but if you would like to guarantee a time slot to meet with a Grassroots Motorsports representative, email Casey Roush …
Who else from the forum is going? I'll be there at booth 3359.
It'll be my second year in a row not being able to make it 
Have fun, it's my favorite trade show of the year.
can i get in in the future as the owner/engineer/mechanic/driver of Team Alavanche Racing, builder of quality $20xx challenge cars since 2015? I hear their qualifications are pretty lax compared to trying to get into SEMA.
was probably going to be in indy friday too 
Pat--- judging by the crowds, SEMA is much easier to get into. Every Tom Dick and Harry that wanted to get an autograph from their favorite TV reality "Star" was at SEMA. It was very difficult to navigate the show with so many non-industry types there.
PRI is much, much more focused. It's truly still a trade show.....instead of a car-show based carnival, like SEMA has devolved into.
I'd think you'd be able to get into PRI without too much hassle.
Truth: I haven't looked into either in many years, sounds like it used to be harder to get into SEMA.

it basically only takes a scanned image of a business card to qualify to get in.
I am going on Saturday for my second year now
Pat, if you can make a business card for your race team, you can get in. Probably have to register onsite though.
Are we going to have an officially unofficial meetup this year?
I'll be there Friday, possibly Saturday if I need to finish>
I'm going Saturday, probably 10ish with a 2hr drive there.
Going to miss it this year

Doesn't even take a real biz card. I made up a letter in Word with a photo of the rallycross MR2 at the top, mentioned SCCA, and said I was the owner of my racing team. This will be my 3rd year I think.
So who all would be down with meeting at the Steak and Shake downtown Indy at 5 on Saturday?
In reply to minivan_racer:
i would but have plans after to go to IMS for there drive-thru xmas lights on the track
In reply to minivan_racer:
With the same 2hr drive home I hope to be gone by then. We should do a lunch in the food court or something.
I'll be there Friday close to 9. Almost a 3 hour drive but it will be my first visit there.
What about Friday?
