Packed House at the Midwest Racers ExpoAs the 2010 racing season in the upper midwest draws to a close, it is never too early for race teams to begin thinking about the next season.
Part of that preparation can begin at the Midwest Motorsports Racers' Expo, to be held Friday January 7th and Saturday, January 8th for the second straight year in Madison, Wisconsin. The expo will again take place at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum on Madison's south end, located at the Alliant Energy Center.
The huge racers' expo will again feature a racing performance trade show, series meetings and seminars, as well as the popular racing parts auction.
"The auction is a great opportunity for teams to sell off any of their unneeded racing parts and components via the auction," commented auctioneer Brian Craig. "It's also the opportunity to bid on used parts they may need for the next season of racing," concluded Craig. The auction is open to all forms of racing – dirt or asphalt. If it has wheels and uses a motor, the auction is the place to be, buy, and sell.
Several of the touring series competing around the upper midwest have held driver meetings about the upcoming season, such as Doug Strasburg's Mid-American Stock Car Series. "We have held a meeting in conjunction with the racer's auctions for over 12 years now; it's a great chance to meet up with the competitors during the offseason, and get an idea on how the new season is shaping up," commented Strasburg.
At the first expo last January, there was a record number of Trade Show exhibitors participating. "Consolidating the former Green Bay and Rockford events into one building, and centrally locating the event for the upper midwestern racing community made it even more attractive to the exhibitors in addition to the racers," commented trade show manager Dave Noelke. "The tradition of having racers' auctions and trade shows has taken place for nearly 30 years in the upper midwest, and we are proud to continue providing this service to area racers," concluded Noelke.
