I'm guessing this show will run for 1-2 max! Similar to the GNC SOS, or all the other little spin off shows we've had....SF Pro, Houston, I want to say Atlantic City but that is still around (for now) I think...

It looks like it is two weeks out of the 2011 Arnold Classic.  As for the Ironman Pro, this contest will replace it.

The total prize money for the event will be $40,000. (Ironman Pro 2009 was $30,000)
Top 5 qualify for Olympia 2011?

Sadly, it's gone for good. Apparently the Fit Expo will remain.

I personally think the IM may disintegrate.  It started as a nice little warm up for the ARNOLD and a good show for international rookies but they (Balik and co) seem more interested in the EXPO (mostly everything having NOT to do with the sport) than the show its self. At least thats how I see it.
