ST. CLOUD, Minn. -- Motorsports competitors, promoters and fans – along with leading industry companies and their products – will come together in one extraordinary showcase of speed when the Race Minnesota (RACEMN) Motorsports Expo debuts November 10-11, 2006.

The RACEMN Motorsports Expo will be a dynamic, hands-on motorsports exposition that will offer a world of information, products and discussions from various facets of the high-performance industry. Located at St. Cloud State University’s Hallenbeck Fieldhouse, St. Cloud, MN, the inaugural event will offer something for every motorsports enthusiast -- from the casual fan to professional race teams.

The RACEMN Motorsports Expo experience will kick off on Friday night, November 10, with a family-oriented Fan Fest including the “Big Wheels of Tomorrow” kids’ Big Wheel race, driver meet & greets, autograph sessions, special promotions and live radio remote broadcasts. On Saturday, the facility will become a beehive of activity with vendors, manufacturers, sanctioning bodies and industry professionals taking center stage as they get down to business with informational displays and panel discussions that will benefit the broad spectrum of race teams and competitors on hand.

“We have an opportunity to showcase motorsports in the State of Minnesota and bring in several of the biggest names in the industry to help promote racing and provide tools that will benefit all racers,” stated RACEMN Motorsports Expo show organizer Barry Braun of Atomic XR, Inc. “Thousands of dirt track racers will be in town for an event banquet that coincides with the RACEMN Motorsports, so team members and vendors can enjoy activities at both.

“We are also offering various interactive fan experience activities that highlight motorsports in a different way and appeal to everyone from kids to casual race fans to true gearheads.”

The RACEMN Motorsports Expo will be covered in-depth at www.racemn.com -- a website that not only provides information about the event, but also provides feature articles, photography and coverage of motorsports in the the Upper Midwest.

In the coming weeks, vendors and attendees will be able to view floor plans, order booths online and watch the 2006 RACEMN Motorsports Expo come to life.

The RACEMN Motorsports Expo already has long-term plans to support Minnesota racing via signed contracts for the show through 2008.
