I  think the show should be central in the US, unless you have evidence that  
there is a high
concentration of owners who would attend on one side of  the country.
Going to Detroit or Orlando for anyone else but those on the  east cost is an 
insane drive.

I have five shows of evidence that the average drive is 600 miles after  that 
the people may come by air but the cars do not.  That said this is why  I 
have the shows in TN besides the Tax Break I get and in the Centeral  Midwest.  I 
went out on a limb on Gettysburg but I believe that is a good  enough draw 
the pre registraiton has shown a real strong hotel registration well  above any 
other show so this may just be the biggest show to date.  Also I  have to be 
at the show and bring everything.  Chicago took 7  trucks/trailers to get the 
stuff there. Kinda hard to do in Vegas.  
 
So for all of you I tend to use the 600 mile drive rule when I do a  show,
 
IF I do a show in Phoenix I would expect about 80- 100 cars and that would  
be real good for that location but we still could draw 600 people. Phoenix  
airport would be busy,  Marc could hitch a ride easily.
 
I thought I would comment on this one comment on location and drive since  it 
does play a part.  As far as locations lets see what you all say the  results 
so far are interesting and this is Patrick's baby so I will let him  finish.
 
Thanks
