The Reynolds and Reynolds Co. will host INDYCAR drivers at its Reynolds Retail Summit: Amplify 2023 on Sept. 26. Jason Stein, host of "Cars and Culture" with Jason Stein on SiriusXM, will moderate a panel with drivers Graham Rahal and Benjamin Pedersen.
Rahal, son of 1986 Indy 500 winner Bobby Rahal, is a seasoned NTT INDYCAR SERIES driver with several top 10 finishes in the 2023 season. Joining him will be rookie driver Pedersen, who transitioned from Indy NXT after seeing success in 2022.
The drivers will discuss the INDYCAR season that just wrapped up, the magic of Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and the psychology of winning. They’ll present automotive retailing professionals with a different perspective to consider when approaching personal and team success at their dealerships.
Later in the day, Reynolds and Reynolds President Chris Walsh will sit down with Robert Kurnick Jr., vice chairman of Penske Corp. and president of Penske Automotive Group, in a fireside chat discussion on current and future trends in retail automotive.
“The keynote panels at the Reynolds Retail Summit are meant to spark inspiration in those attending,” Walsh said. “Our industry needs to continue to move forward by innovating and sharing best practices. Working collaboratively, we can elevate the retail experience and realize the growth dealers want to achieve.”
