Return of the RTBC:

By Dan Schechner – Editor – Performance Racing Industry

We’re pleased to announce that following a successful debut in 2012, the Race Track Business Conference will return to this year’s PRI Trade Show in Indy.  The daylong conference is being presented once again by Tim Frost of National Speedway Directory, and is set to cover a number of hot button topics, including track sanctions, special events, sponsorships, safety media and more. Frost told us at press time that this speaker list was still being finalized (last year’s keynote was the legendary promoter Humpy Wheeler) but that he anticipated some big announcements in the coming weeks.

“With the return of the PRI Trade Show to Indianapolis – the racing capital of the world – this conference will be the central place for all race tracks,” Frost said, adding “The agenda and speakers will offer valuable insights and networking opportunities for all attendees.” As of this writing, we do know that the conference will take place from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on Wednesday, December 11 in Room 238 of the Indiana Convention Center.  For updates and more about the RTBC, visit www.racetrackbusinessconference.com or call (847) 853-0294.
