V8TV Productions, Inc., is excited to be working with the Performance Racing Industry trade organization (PRI) to host a live stage at the 2018 PRI Show in Indianapolis, IN, December 6-8. The stage will be buzzing with activities all day each day of the PRI Show, with attractions ranging from press conferences and interviews to seminars and full-blown roundtable discussions.

Highlights will be a series of round table presentations, with 7 events planned. These are approximately 1 hour in length. Moderated by automotive host Kevin Oeste, (SEMA, V8TV, Muscle Car Of The Week, Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals), these live shows bring racing personalities to the stage as well as manufacturers and engine builders to discuss some of the hottest racing topics. A description of each is below. In addition, there will be at least 6 individual ½ hour seminars as well, with additional hot topics in a shorter format.

The remaining stage time will be dedicated to press conferences, new product reveals, PRI-scheduled interviews, daily recaps from the show, and more.
