WoW thanks for sharing times like 467

 

youre welcome

 

Nice work, I was dreaming about SEMA all week too!

 

Wow absolutley what this site needed all those georgous pictures you took so much color and so many models (cars) yah right. Thank-You Sir !

 

In the video any idea who the artist of the music is ? My son loves it Now would like me to book my next year holiday for one of these shows he'll be 12 can he get in ?

 

the song is The Grits - Ooh Ahh, album- The Art of Translation

shows? are you asking about SEMA? I know they are really cracking down on who can get in, supposedly the age cut off is 16. Those that can get in: work or own a company in the automotive industry (exhibitor/attendee as buyer or something of that sort), work for a manufacture/car designer, media, display vehicle, basically need to somehow be part of the industry.

 

Thank-You so fast. He'll freak when he hears in in the car.

 

Got it its was I the the liquid beat remix version

 

Nice pics, thanks for sharing

 

Great pics Richard!
By the looks of your pics, we missed a lot!
2 days just isn't enough...



I read the min age was 16 too, but I saw a couple kids running around that were 12 or 13 at best.

 

I soooo want to go to SEMAone of these years. I thought they opened to the public on the last day or two? Maybe Im wong.

 

yeah 2 days is definitely not enough, especially if you are going to stop at booths to check things out, talk to people, make connections, go to press conference/unvieling, demos, test drives and all the other stuff they have going. Its still impossible in the 4 days its open, heck I had a hard time doing it in the 6 days I was there. You really have to game plan and hit just the things you really want to see.

I didnt see anyone that young but it is suppose to be the new cut off.

no its not, close to public the entire time and it gets harder to get in every year. you can walk the outside area though without issues most likely but thats not really worth the trip itself.

 

There are lots of cars outside, like rrobello's was this year. The Overhaulin' tent is out there too, and I've never seen anyone checking badges to get into there. The other tents and the main halls (all 3 of them) are guarded by watchful guards though. I forgot it wasn't open to attendees until 9am, and on Friday at 8:45 or so, I got stopped trying to walk into the north hall with my buyers badge. Oh well, I went and stood in line at Starbucks instead.

check out the SEMA website, they should have information about what you need to get tickets for next year, like what kind of proof you will need if you wanted to go, and what kind of business it has to be. I know they have a list of businesses (marketing, etc) that aren't qualified, but if you have a small parts business you should be able to qualify. Got anything you want to sell?

 

I just saw the pic of the fox body with 2 turbos in the trunk! wow

 

Was this the first thing that came to anyone elses mind?

 

Roflmao

 

lol...

 

OMG LMAF

 

don't suppose theres any more photos of this car floating around out there? I haven't come across any in the SEMA galleries i've looked through... or at the very least does anybody know the company that made it?
