Special Advertising Edition; Buy From Companies That Support Short Track Racing!
Issue42.11
A Serviceto Promoters Sponsored by
Each winter, leading suppliers to the short track industry support weekly racing and America’s short track promoters by participating in the RPM Promoters Workshops as trade show exhibitors. Many promoters take advantage of the Workshops’ one-stop shopping opportunity. For those who do not attend the Workshops, we publish this special issue, a post-season “Buyers’ Guide.” Veterans will recognize the ads of long-time industry suppliers and long-time Workshops supporters. And each year, there are new companies as well. If you are new to promotion and looking for services and products, this guide has what you need. You can use it now to gather the tools and services you will need to operate, and you can file it in your desk drawer, glove compartment, or briefcase for reference later. If you’re a veteran
promoter make sure you take a look inside because among the ads you expect to see, are the ads of first-time exhibitors looking to meet promoters. At the Workshop, don’t miss the opportunity to meet with the exhibitors. These new Commercial Registrants support you and your track by exhibiting at the Workshops. They do their part to make possible our year-round publishing and our reasonable Workshops credential fees. Most offer more products and services than are shown here. If you don’t see what you need, give them a call, check their Websites, or send them an e-mail. They deserve first chance to earn your business. Even if what you need isn’t listed in the ads, discuss your needs with them. Call them today, and make them your first choice for equipment and supplies.
