Economic changes have forced companies to improve their business practices. We’ve focused on projects that we believe will succeed. You have to increase inventory turns, pay attention to your profit margin and only take on projects or products that have a solid plan behind them. Technology from racing is pushing forward rapidly. In years past, racing innovation ran wild in an outlaw-type environment. Some areas of professional racing innovation have been stifled from sanctioning-body rules that pushed toward more common spec engines and the subsequent consolidation of racing teams. But while racing innovation may have slowed a little while the economy faltered, it seems to be back to full steam. On the new-truck side, production and sales have slowed, which means the residual value of used trucks is higher than we’ve seen in decades. This longer holding period for trucks may slow parts sales to new trucks but might bolster parts sales for older trucks. We are living in a world where value wins and service is expected. Excellent service and delivering value are critically important. We’re investing heavily in finding ways to improve; that is our competitive plan. —Brian Reese Vice President, Product & Business Development, COMP Performance Group www.semanews.com 25 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS Keystone Automotive Operations Inc.

Custom tuning for bolton modifications is the current trend in the streetperformance category, specifically for late-model, computer-controlled vehicles. For light-truck owners, the sought-after products are those that have options for fuel economy and performance, such as air intakes, exhaust and tuners, and the market for diesel particulate filter delete exhaust and tuning is also growing tremendously as more diesel trucks are sold. Still, retailers must be aware of state and local emissions laws. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) are increasing enforcement activities related to aftermarket parts. Make sure the street-performance products you sell are emissions legal, and put together packages with parts that are complementary. There are advantages to pricing a “package” deal that can allow you to be price competitive and make more profit. Stick with parts manufacturers that have been around for a while and that invest in product testing. Some of the new companies entering the market have great products, but others are copycats or are cutting corners to be first or cheapest to market. Beware of selling or installing parts on a customer’s car that are inferior in quality and design. As a retailer, it’s your reputation on the line. —Chris Crecelius National Sales Manager, Hypertech www.semanews.com 27 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS Whiteline Automotive Whiteline Automotive KCA425M Anti-Lift/Caster Kit for Subaru WRX STi 2011 909-476-2860 www.whiteline.com.au PN: KCA425M Whiteline anti-lift kit will result in more compliant suspension during braking and acceleration for reduced understeer with increased frontend grip and sharper, more precise steering due to added caster.

More and more consumers are finding the information they need online versus the old standard speed shop with a giant catalog rack. Online forums let peers discuss different build types and different vehicle modifications in a format that is incredibly intuitive, and people love to argue their point regardless of whether they know the right way to go about things. Consumers are making brand choices based more on word-of-mouth recommendations and less on sales pitches from a counterperson; that is something both manufacturers and retailers should be mindful of when discussing strategies to promote their products. The World Wide Web presents plenty of opportunities for parts retailers to gain respect from consumers, but it has also made it difficult for many performance parts retailers to make money, since online shopping has a tendency to devalue products and services that were once highly profitable. There is nothing more important in today’s marketplace than knowing your facts and keeping them straight. If there are inconsistencies in how you advertise a product versus what it actually does or make claims that stretch the truth, you will inevitably be called on it. To stay competitive in today’s world, credibility is the key to success. —Dan Dolan National Sales Manager, DiabloSport Inc. www.semanews.com 29 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS AFCO Racing/Dynatech AFCO Racing/ Dynatech High-Performance Coolant 800-632-2320 www.afcoracing.com PN: 100001 Ready to use, this high-performance coolant comes premixed and ready to put into the cooling system. A great complement to any AFCO cooling product. We’ve finally reached the point where the mainstream street-performance enthusiast is embracing new technology that’s been incubating at the original-equipment level for quite some time. The innovations include high-tech crate motors, aftermarket EFI conversions for older motors and transmissions, ranging from six-speed manual conversions to modern electronically controlled overdrive automatics and even paddle shifters. This trend means that consumers are demanding modern-car performance and reliability from older hot rods, musclecars, trucks and low riders. The aftermarket needs to continue to push hard on the technology front to keep up with consumer demand, from plug-and-play EFI systems and latemodel cam upgrades to iPad integration and more. It’s a trend that is helping to make our cars more fun to drive and easier to use, which will prolong the hobby and the industry. We live in a new economy in 2012. People want great customer service, parts that work as advertised, a seamless purchasing experience—and they want it all with a smile. If we strive as an industry to meet and exceed those expectations with the latest technology, the best possible customer experience and an open, honest dialog through traditional and digital channels, the future looks very bright indeed. —Dan Kahn President, Kahn Media Inc. 30 March 2012 SEMA News ’11 Camaro Front-End Suspension Package 800-632-2320 www.afcoracing.com PN: 30025KIT This ’11 Camaro suspension package replaces the factory components with coil-over struts that allow ride-height adjustments and made-for-racing caster-camber plates that are sure to please from show time to go time.

A lot of the parts that we are selling are going on cars that are driven on the street every day and at the track on weekends, where all of the performance claims are put to the test. There is also a middle ground where the customer doesn’t want a stock clutch but does want something that has more performance. The days of the fashion accessory as the primary objective are all but gone. An end-user who builds a fashion-statement car is more likely to build only that one, moving to whatever is hot at that moment in time. Could be to a boat, cell phone, truck, whatever. The people in our segment are going to be in it for the long haul; it’s a hobby, a lifestyle and an identity. The industry needs to value the jobber and performance shops. The shops must have a way to market and distinguish themselves in a unique, value-adding and sustainable way. In addition, the channels of manufacturing and distribution must develop programs with them so that they have an edge. If they have that knowledge, are active on the forums and in their communities, shops can develop as brands and really capitalize on that. —Dave Ziozios CEO, Motovicity Distribution www.semanews.com 33 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS Spaghetti Menders Inc.

If this economy begins to turn around, I believe we’ll see the response of the consumer in increased sales. The performance enthusiast is alive and anxious to put parts on his car. He is just afraid to spend his money. One of the most exciting trends is the entry of the cool performance vehicles out of Detroit. The new Camaro, Mustang and Challenger are incredible vehicles and are helping excite the market and get people thinking about performance. But you can’t sell from an empty shelf. The consumer believes that if he has to wait ’til tomorrow for a purchase, he may as well go home and order it by phone or online. Having stock on the shelf is the answer to making the sale today, but that strategy is also a challenge. Very few retailers—especially smaller stores and speed shops—have the dollars or the margins that allow them to fill their shelves while waiting for consumers to beat down their doors. It is a very tough time for retailers today, but the ones I talk to generally say that they can compete and usually make the sale if they have the product on hand. —Jeep Worthan Vice President, High Performance Sales, Auto Meter 34 March 2012 SEMA News Cilgen Marine Coating 972-775-6130 www.techlinecoatings.com PN: LTMC Cilgen marine coating, clear, reduces drag and is an easy-to-clean, anti-fouling, protective, UV-stable coating for any watersports equipment or vehicle.

The Mustang Boss 302 is interesting but probably not as significant in the aftermarket as the ’13 GT500 will be, with its 650 hp. The Camaro ZL1, on sale before the Mustang, will also light the spark. We have already announced the Hot Rod ZL1/ GT500 Faceoff, a drag-and-autocross shootout event, anticipating the hot rivalry among tuners. The GM LS engines continue to gain ground with engine swaps into older cars, but I’d caution smaller, older-car-focused retailers not to stock up too heavily on LS parts; in nearly every case, the manufacturers I ask admit that the sales of small-block Chevy and small-block Ford parts are still many times ahead of LS parts, despite the buzz. Retailers need to be educated on the LS but realize that the core remains with the older engines. Looking at late-model performance, the industry will also need to get educated on direct injection, as seen in the new Camaro V6. The day is also coming when new-car performance will once again mean smaller engines with turbos. Witness the Ford Ecoboost program. I think GM will follow. —David Freiburger Editor In Chief, Hot Rod Magazine www.semanews.com 37 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS Champion Brands LLC Racing Brake Fluid 660-890-6231 www.championsusechampion.com PN: 4059K 600 Series racing brake fluid is a highperformance brake fluid developed for severe-duty racing applications under high heat and extreme pressure.

Part of the line of Lingenfelter signature series Camaro body kit components. We need to be cognizant of the growing age of racing competitors and entice kids back to performance. Part of the problem is that normal people can’t even work on newer cars. Everything is computerized, so there is no more changing the carburetor or installing headers. I don’t know what the answer is, but the industry needs to find someone who does. Local tracks are trying different things to entice customers to stay local and enjoy the camaraderie of their fellow competitors. Things such as specialty footbrake races, are becoming popular as racers find that electronics (computers, timers, etc.) make the racing so competitive that it’s hard to win. We’re seeing more locally run series or circuit races for the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series competitors (Stock and Super Stock classes). Rather than travel a long distance to run a national or divisional race, racers are opting to run a local one- or two-day event, which might even pay more than a national or divisional event. For local speed shops, it really comes down to customer service. There is no denying the mom-and-pop shops’ ability to take care of their customers. There is no beating local knowledge in technological trends. —John DiBartolomeo Editor, Drag Racing Action Magazine 38 March 2012 SEMA News Champion Brands LLC Racing Oil 660-890-6231 www.championsusechampion.com PN: 4111AN Champion racing oil products contain a proprietary thermal viscosity stabilizer, special lubricity modifiers, anti-wear additives and a high quantity of ZDDP.

This cleansing of the aftermarket left many searching for a new way to survive, but those who remain are perhaps better off today. Companies are now seeing a slow but steady rebound to the market. Street performance will always evolve. Hot rods and older musclecars can still be seen around the country. Trucks and SUVs have turned into family vehicles, with many new luxuries and performance options. Musclecars have been reborn with modern horsepower and engineering. Sport-compact and truck companies are adopting these new musclecars into their marketing plans. Don’t take your eyes off any of these markets. Companies need to prevent frivolous spending and must remain engaged, watching for evolving trends in order to capture their share of dollars being spent. Including another automotive category into a niche business may be the most common way to prosper these days. The Internet and social networking are dominant forces in performance retail sales. If you intend to grow or capture your share of the market, part of your business plan should include a well-managed and easyto-use retail website with an additional focus on social media activity. —Roger L.

ProMedia Events feature musclecar racing and performance, which is a good place to be considering that the Big Three have brought us all-new Camaros, Mustangs and Challengers. Modern tuning is needed to ensure that each performance part works in combination with the engine and computer, and speed shops, engine builders and performance centers are installing dynos and working with tuners so that the whole performance package works together to maximize performance. NMCA features events exclusive to select groups—LSX racers, late-model Hemi competitors and even Cobra Jet owners. NMRA now features a class called Coyote Stock, which is open only to racers who purchase sealed Coyote crate engines from Ford Racing and then take each other on heads-up! We have also seen the 275 drag radial movement continue to grow as racers embrace this new tire technology at incredible speeds. One of the most desired upgrades is in the power-adder category. Supercharging has taken off, and many companies feature a variety of packages that offer big power at a reasonable price.

These 100% TIG-welded arms are made in the USA. In racing, it’s always about power and reliability, with cost running a close third. But it’s also about availability and fast delivery. The development of off-the-shelf products that make great horsepower is at an all-time high, and CNC machine centers that produce products at lower costs without sacrificing quality have really helped. There now seems to be hardcore aftermarket racing components for almost every OEM engine used in every form of racing, and the current availability of high-horsepower turnkey motors is remarkable. As it has become more difficult to provide horsepower increases in today’s street cars, most manufacturers are moving to styling performance. It has always been important to provide products for people who want to personalize their vehicles. Besides air intake systems, exhaust and electronic components, there are now more supercharger and turbo applications being marketed for specific applications than in the past. Information is key. It has never been so easy to get relevant information to potential customers. Active websites with current information require an aggressive approach to web development and updates. Potential customers need instant information. They expect to be able to interact with someone directly at the manufacturer and have their questions and concerns answered in real time. —Steve Williams Vice President, K&N Air Filters 44 March 2012 SEMA News Advanced Flow Engineering Inc.

We are seeing a shift toward the G-Machine-/Pro Touring-type car construction and a focus on all elements of the car: braking, handling, acceleration, etc. Events, such as the Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge, and autocrossing are giving these enthusiasts outlets to test their skills and refine their combinations. We are seeing a lot of interest in weight reduction in most racing market segments, and certainly our black-anodized product is popular in most segments as well. OE performance platforms, such as the Ford Cobra Jet, have created interest in production-based drag racing, with a similar impact upon some domestic musclecar road race series. The OEs have relied on the aftermarket to supply critical performance parts for the vehicles, creating more opportunities to sell parts. Diesel performance is strong in the truck market, and we are seeing a stronger-thanexpected response to our new line in the lifted-truck market. The strongest niches within the truck market focus on performance, whether it be towing, off-road, pulling, diesel drags, etc. Retailers should focus on product knowledge and service.

In rock racing, we have realized expanded sales opportunities with both vehicle safety and personal safety products. On the Impact side of our business, which caters to a full spectrum of racing genres, we have seen remarkable growth with our products to the kart racing market, which we have attributed to the relative affordability of this type of racing in comparison to other forms. Another trend that we are seeing with safety products in particular is the customer’s demand for products that are made in the United States. Now more than ever, end users are choosing quality over quantity. Disposable income has diminished, and consumers want to know that the products and services they are purchasing are going to carry them through a couple of race seasons.

Retailers must listen to and address the needs of their racing customers by proving to them that they know something about their passion, either by being involved or by reading up on the different series and classes. A shop that is involved with racing adds credibility in the customers’ eyes. It could be as simple as sponsoring a local car show or offering a discount on parts to racers and having pictures of their cars in the store. Retailers should keep track of the racing season. Stock up on wear-and-tear items that racers need during the season and items for freshening the car in the off-season. Some racers will also be doing major upgrades or building a new race car, so the retailer should stock up on items for the engine and chassis. If a racer needs a part at the last minute, he should feel confident that it will go on as intended. Check with the racing sanctioning bodies for changes in rules and regulations, and stock up on items that address the changes. Also see what is new from the manufacturers. Call the manufacturers themselves or use their sales reps. Even though they work for the manufacturers, they are great sources of information. —Thor Schroeder Marketing Director and New Product Manager, Moroso Performance Products www.semanews.com 47 SEMA n RACING & PERFORMANCE NEW PRODUCTS Trufiber TF-CPC-PC 951-270-3222 www.trucarbon.net PN: TF-CPC-PC 2005-2010 Mustang 4.6 plenum cover.
