Anyone going to the PRI Show in Orlando?
 
Anyone going to the PRI Show in Orlando next week? Starts on Dec 11 in Orlando Florida. Pretty hard show to get into if you are not in the industry, but figured I would ask.

I know the DIYautotune folks were there last year..

kotomile 11-30-2008 11:02 PM

I was there a couple years back, and I'm not in the industry at all :D

Wish I could go again though. Have fun!

johnwag 11-30-2008 11:06 PM

I'll be there with Gary from trackdogracing.

Picking up a 92 sunburst yellow while we're there.

coastertrav 12-01-2008 03:08 AM

I'll be there with the UCF SAE team.

I'll look for the DIY Autotune booth to see if they are there.

wtf is up with TDR and yellow cars suddenly?

TurboTim 12-01-2008 06:11 PM

I'll be there manning the Jesel booth now that they laid off 3 of the 5 guys who were supposed to go.

Something tells me the show will be dead. I should get a few hours to walk around and try to find some of you folks. :)

M-Tuned 12-01-2008 07:29 PM

We shall see... I thought SEMA would be dead, but it was actually quite busy. I'm flying in next Tuesday morning with the folks from Vibrant Performance. Hoping to get a game of golf in while I am there.

TurboTim 12-02-2008 12:11 PM

I will stop by the Vibrant booth when I get a chance. I use most of their stuff on my fab projects, nice stuff.

For sure.. I might be at the booth, just not sure when yet. John & I normally spend most of our time walking the show, but use the booth as a home base :)

jwx 12-02-2008 03:20 PM

I know that Jerry and Matt will be down. Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it this year.

ray_sir_6 12-02-2008 03:33 PM

I'll be there, no booth, just walking for miles again.

naarleven 12-03-2008 02:05 AM

I will actually be in Orlando that night. Doubt I could get in though, would go if I could.

TurboTim 12-03-2008 07:12 PM

Well they just told me and the other Engineer that we aren't going. "No money".

Have fun fellas.

coastertrav 12-03-2008 07:29 PM

Dang...I was looking foreword to meeting some of you guys, but I guess not many are going. I'll still be there, but how about a head count?

I don't frikkin' know. We weren't gonna go to the convention originally because he said that he would rather save the money for a lift, then he tells me he bought another fucking yellow miata and it's in Orlando and we might as well go to the convention. This makes yellow miata #4.
I told him he should have used the money and bought a 2 post lift that we desperately need. He didn't respond. I'm actually getting pissed off the more that I think about it because another one of his damn cars will be taking up space at the shop. FUCK!

Matt Cramer 12-04-2008 10:06 AM

Well, I live there and happen to like it...anus.

y8s 12-06-2008 05:11 PM

i imagine parts like winter park are better, but we were on the strip of International near the convention center the whole time and it's just TGI Fridays, IHOP, and Denny's for miles.

coastertrav 12-06-2008 05:43 PM

LOL, yeah. I'm over in the UCF/Ovido area where things are a little better, but there are douchebags EVERYWHERE. It is kinda like a treat when I go into town, and get to mosey around.

naarleven 12-10-2008 10:30 PM

I saw a diyautotune turbo miata(it was red and covered with diy stickers) on the turnpike and followed em for 3 hours on my way down from school. On a brief stop at a toll booth, the driver said he was going to the PRI show.

downtown orlando and winter park are actually really nice. It surprised me when I first went because I always associated Orlando with a piece of dog shit.

bryantaylor 12-10-2008 10:40 PM

the average joe can't get in right?

johnwag 12-10-2008 10:52 PM

I'm stoked!

Matt Cramer, I'm planning on talking to you. :)

Gotta be in the race technology business apparently. Elitist fucks. See we vote Obama in and look, things are already elitist. Lets start an anti-intellectual movement. Something in touch with the proletariat. We'll call it the Khmer Rouge.

Sorry Guys.. It is an industry wholesale show.

Toddcod 12-11-2008 09:48 AM

Hmmm.... That is kinda wierd. You would think theymay set aside a day or 2, but a week. They could open it to the public and get a little PR.

But each to their own.

Totally off topic.... This partime chick that works today SMELL'S. It is like puss and rotton cooch!!!!! I got to get outta here..... Gross
