still can't figure out how moving that show to a colder climate in the middle of december was a good idea.

I've been working at every PRI since it started (now retired) and the attendance of the show at the Indy location was way more than in Florida. Alot more folks drove in to Indy, even with the poor weather conditions.

vegas isn't very central either, but it works for SEMA. vegas is a destination. Indy is a destination 2 weeks a year (US NATIONALS/INDY 500). Orlando has attractions, things to do. People can take their families and let them go to Disney/beach, etc. while us gearheads are at PRI. Stuff like that increases attendance, having to deal with snow and freezing temps will not. I understand the centrally located part, but i think they will lose overall
