Show Vs. Show...my opinion.

Well, I did both the IMIS Indy show and the PRI show. INDY, cold like a mo-fo, great small show IF you turn left on asphalt or dirt, not much else. Prices for housing and food are WAY high.
PRI at Orlando: Half the size of previous shows, turnout lower, cold non standard weather, outrageous prices for food in the show...we packed lunches. Bus service was good, IMHO, the better of the two shows.

The PRI show has turned into what the SEMA show was 15 years ago. "PERFORMANCE" Racing Industry - can someone explain to me what a "spray-on bedliner" for a pickup truck has to do with "Performance"...? Other NON performance booths and displays "cheapen" the PRI show in my oppinion.
The IMIS show in Indy is smaller like what the PRI show used to be, back in the Louisville/Cincinnati years.

The shuttle busses make the whole PRI experience much more palletable. Much easier to get around and free.
