Hard-Core Racers Will
Find One Stop Shopping at Motorsports 2012
It’s quite possible, literally, to spend
a day at the Motorsports 2012 Presented by VP’s SEF Small Engine
Fuels Race Car and Trade Show and buy everything needed to put a
turn-key race car on the track, maintain it, and tow it to
speedway in style.
The three day show, January 20-21-22,
covers all of the space available in the Greater Philadelphia
Expo Center at Oaks, PA and gives attendees the opportunity to
see - and order - just about anything and everything imaginable
in motorsports.
The Motorsports 2012 Show will have
among its exhibitors, the three major dirt track Modified race
car manufacturers, Bicknell Race Cars, Teo Pro, and Troyer
Engineering. Would-be buyers will have the rare opportunity to
shop and compare, side by side in a controlled setting, the
virtues of each chassis and component parts.
Bernheisel Race Cars, the foremost dirt
Late Model builder, and RTS, long considered the top Micro
Sprint builder in the east will also showcase their newest,
fastest, and safest and move innovative race cars and
components.
Every race car needs a safe, well engineered seat; three
manufacturers, Kirkey, Butlerbuilt and The Joie of Seating will
have their newest, tested-tough pieces on view and available for
immediate purchase.
Roush-Yates, Speed Equipment Corporation
(SEC) and Kriner Racing Engines will be competing for the
under-the-hood dollars of racing consumers.
If your sector of the sport requires use of a carburetor, either
Avanti or Island Performance can be of service.
Engines need to be cooled and a Calaman
Racing Radiators is an essential element for a start-up or
established race team. Durable belt drives are fundamental to
maximizing performance and Jones Racing Products, an industry
leader, will have their full product line on display at the
Show.
Power is useless in a race car without
getting the torque to the wheels. Racing rear end manufacturers
DMI and Winters will be in competition for attention and sales.
A KSE steering system is another essential, available at
Motorsports 2012. VRP Shocks and Robison Racing Products offer
products to enhance handing characteristics and provide a
competitive advantage.
Once put in motion, two exhibiting
companies, Wilwood and Performance Friction offer the products,
backed by race-proven research, to slow the cars down.
No race car will far or fast without
quality race fuels and without premium lubricants. VP, Insinger
Performance and Viper Venom each offer the fuel to go fast. Joe
Gibbs Racing, Brad Penn Lubricants, Lucas Oil and SPL Lubricants
each provide the vital fluids needed to reduce friction in
highly tuned engines.
And for tires, both American Racer and Hoosier will be on hand
at Motorsports, wooing promoters and series organizers as much
as competitors to give their brands a try.
Tires need to be mounted. Valken and
Keiser, two of the industry leaders in competition wheel
engineering, provide race teams options.
The safety conscious racer (and who
isn’t?) can choose between Design 500, Hinchman or Velocita for
a custom made fire suit.
Most, if not all of the racing specialty
equipment on display at Motorsports 2012 is available in
quantity throughout the racing season from five different
retailer-exhibitors: Behrent’s Performance Warehouse, Hoffman
Brothers Speed & Performance, A1 Racing Products, Pancho’s Speed
Parts and Precise Racing Products.
There are other firms at Motorsports to
fill a race team’s need for apparel - Bob Hilbert Sportswear,
ASI and Awesome Racewear.
Getting to and from the races in style
and with reliability is critical, given long distances traveled
and loads carried. Trailer manufacturers Gold Rush, Haulmark,
Cargo, and Car Mate offer those in the market choices over the
spectrum of motorsports budgets.
Exhibiting trailer dealers G. Stone and
Atlantic Coast offer additional product lines and opportunities.
Recreational vehicles, a necessary
adjunct to a motorsports team on the move, are available for
view from Dylan’s RV and Stoltzfus RV.
No team is whole without a professional
appearing rig and car. Radical Designs, 4 Star Lettering, Nouse
Graphics and Sharp Signs &?Designs each are capable of creating,
designing, printing and meeting sensitive customer deadlines.
Area Auto Racing News, a nationally distributed motorsports
trade publication, will begin its 50th consecutive year of
publication on January 3, 2012. The Trenton, NJ based
publication will have limited run 50th Year commemorative
t-shirts available at the booth when the ‘Best Of The Best’ are
signing autographs and throughout the three days of the show.
A special offer on Area Auto Racing News
subscriptions will also be offered.
Young ladies are reminded that there is still time to register
to be part of the annual BPG Racing Ms. Motorsports Pageant set
for Saturday, January 21st. The winner walks off with $1,500 and
other perks plus opportunities for personal appearances
representing the Motorsports show.
Tim Hogue can provide those interested
with all details on the show and send a complete color brochure
that outlines all show details for those wanting to be
exhibitors. There are very few display spaces available at this
late date.
And it is not too late for race teams to
be thinking about having their race car on display at the show.
Contact Tim at 609.888.3618.
The annual show, produced by Len Sammons
and his staff, is considered by many to be the most successful
show of its type on the East Coast.
