The
good folks at Powermaster Performance always
have great new items to keep you charged up. In the upper
right, our friend J.R. is modeling their nice, brandy-new
catalog. In the lower left is their new DENSO Style
Race-Prepped alternator with true one-wire hookup
and output of 35 amp at idle and 75 amp top end. Available
in 12v, 16v and XS Volt (which allows for adjustable voltage
between 13.5v and 18.5 volts). This is Powermaster's smallest
and lightest unit. In the lower right is their AD
Style Race Prepped unit. This bad boy is a 165
amp unit which puts out 100 amp at idle and 165 amp at top
end. It has dual internal fans for superior cooling. Visit
www.PowermasterPerformance.com.

I
make sure to buy something every year at the PRI Gear booth.
They always have a cool selection of shirts, hats and jackets,
all very tastefully done, and you get service with a smile!
You can buy the gear online at prigear.com.

I've
been using parts from PROFORM Parts on
the Dragtime Dodge for years and since then I've gotten
to know the folks at the company quite well. I always love
the enthusiasm they bring to the PRI Show, along with their
cool new products. In the upper left, Booth Platt is showing
us their new Variable Speed High-Performance Fan
Controller (p/n 69596). This controller will maintain
consistent engine temps while reducing fan wear & tear
and noise. It's available for both single- and dual-fan
set-ups. In the upper right is their popular collector
bolts with Wedge Locking feature. These bolts have
super-hard cam-locking washers which prevent the bolts from
vibrating loose. The bottom photos shows their new Billet
Aluminum Slim Wireless 7,000 lb. Vehicle Scale System.
It has Bluetooth connectivity and the company is even working
on an app for the unit which will be available sometime
in 2018. Visit www.proformparts.com
for more info.

One
of the more eye-opening conversations I had at PRI was with
Trailer-Alarms.com, makers of the Pro-Tec
Trailer Alarm System. Racers, have you noticed
more and more people on Facebook sharing about stolen trailers?
It's not just the racecars they're after, sometimes it's
the trailer itself to be used by smugglers and even survivalists
who bury the trailer as a kind of underground bunker! That's
where the Pro-Tec Trailer Alarm System comes into play.
This system monitors the trailer and its contents by using
a built-in accelerometer and door pins. If anyone tries
to move the trailer or open a door, the piercing siren goes
off, the running lights flash and the electric brakes are
applied, and can even send you a text message if desired.
That trailer ain't going nowhere! Visit www.ProtecSystemOne.com. |
This
was a neat item at the show. Race Garages
manufactures inflatable garages that are air-fed with an
included blower. These not only gives your pit area shade
and security but also keeps you out of the weather. Many
options available and each unit is custom designed by you.
According to the company's website, "These can be set
up in less than 15 minutes by a child." (So that's
what, like maybe 20 minutes for us racers?) Visit their
website at www.racegarages.com. |
