This year's show goes Tue - Fri. 11-2 thru 11-5-04. Most celebs show up early in the week , John Force, Mario A. etc. You'll need a pre-arranged ticket & show a photo ID to get in. It also might be possible to buy tix at registration (?), check out Sema.org
The best exhibits are of course Racing & Performance main hall, Wheel & Tire (really T & A bling show) hall, and the entire place is just dripping with techno dazzle everywhere ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Our exhibit is #20610, if you're at the show--stop in ... |

I actually made it but not without problems. My benz's voltage regulator gave out late Wed night and I had to spend the night in Bakersfield. Easy fix but lost alot of time.
It was nice to meet "Maltese Falcon" at the MSDS booth. Didn't get a chance to have a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) with John but I will return... Renegade is starting development on a Subaru STI and GM LS1 conversion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Hmmm, must have been motivated by the tuners at the show. A fantastic show and highly recommended for the auto enthusiast. Lot's of shiney big wheels, show girls, and loud stereo but still a great show. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) I liked some of the concept cars, coach builders, tools, neat parts.... Felix |
