JEGS to leave a mark on PRI show

ORLANDO (Dec 10) – It’s easy to get lost in the cacophony of sights, sounds, and colors at the annual Performance Racing Industry show in Orlando, but the familiar yellow-and-black of high performance parts industry leader JEGS Mail Order will remain in the forefront thanks to three must-see Team JEGS items.

On center stage at PRI’s Pit Stop Café will be the beautiful, Jerry Haas-built JEGS.com Pontiac GXP Pro Street racecar that Troy Coughlin drove to the 2009 world championship in the Edelbrock National Muscle Car Association. The photogenic machine is powered by a massive 830 cid Sonny Leonard motor that produces 1,890 horsepower.

Just across the way in the ultra-hip Oakley booth, visitors can see the groundbreaking one-piece firesuit five-time world champion Jeg Coughlin Jr. helped design for use in NHRA Pro Stock competition and multiple other classes. The attention to detail of driver ergonomics and state-of-the-art fire protection make the suit an instant favorite for anyone that tries it on and the experts at Oakley are prepared to outfit all comers in an identical get-up.

While at the Oakley booth, conventioneers can also examine the artistry of renowned artist Jason Beam of BEAM Designs, who paints helmets for a start-studded list of professional drivers, including Jeg Coughlin Jr., four-time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart, Joey Logano, Kurt Busch, Robby Gordon, Carl Edwards, Denny Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, and Sam Hornish Jr.,
