Anyone here going this year? Finally managed to make it happen this year...I'll be there! :-)

SEMA Show |

 

Jealous of you !

Have fun

 

And take lots of pics!

 

I'll get there one year. Have fun and take pics!!

 

I was just thinking about making a thread for it. I'll be there Wednesday. You going all week Shoofin?

 

Should be there with the Stadium Super Truck event, probably wont get time to go to the show but we'll see

 

Man, I want to go.

 

Me too

Curious for those NOT in the car industry, how do you manage tickets ?

 

I'm pretty sure you have to know someone, if you own a performance or tuning shop you can get tickets, I think thats how most people get them.

 

^ Yeah... I should have taken advantage when I had the parts site. Now I'll need to have a hookup...

 

Any photo requests?

 

CTS-V, Z06, Audi R8, Porsche Panamera.

Those would be mine

 

Got it. I'm sure it won't be hard to find any of those there.

 

Hellcat jeep

Any and all vipers

 

ILX....... and RLX.

 

promo girls...lol

 

Getting there Monday night, heading back home Thursday redeye, back home Friday AM. PM me your number, we'll get together!

 

T, I'm going with you next year.

 

PM'd
I'll see what I can do dude lol. It'll be tough with the new home company but'cha never know.

 

Sorry we didn't get to meet up, Eddie. Maybe next year.

Here's a ton of photos. I'm posting them from my phone so they're unedited

 

 

 

Dig the Trans-am.

The Challenger GT AWD is an interesting concept...wonder why they didn't go SRT and only RT with the SCAT pack 3 upgrades.

Dart GLH has been long rumored since the SRT was announced canned...but annoyed there no actual "goes like hell" goodies. Supposedly the engine isn't ready.

 

SO much awesomeness

I attended in 2011 and I'm hoping to go next year.

 

Awesome pics... thanks for posting!!!

 

Thanks ST! Especially for the Spyder/Speedster shots

 

You're very welcome, guys. The black Aventador with green wheels and the 918 drew the biggest crowds. My favorite part of the show was checking out the Daytona coupe. It was incredible. There was no one, I mean no one, standing anywhere near it so I got to really soak it in and enjoy its historic value and patina. To see that car in person was an honor.

 

^ Crazy that there was no one around the Daytona. I know I'd be over there checking it out.

 

Most of the SEMA people probably don't understand the significance of the Shelby or what makes it a very special car.

They seem more interested in tacky aesthetic mods and donk wheels.

 

I'm going to try and go next year.

I may be able to get some tickets from a local car guy.

We will see.

 

Videos from the Ford event. The GT350 and Focus RS sounded much, much better in person. Click the images to watch the videos on Flickr.

Take it off some sweet jumps.

 

how was the hail?

 

You have more pix of the girls? ???

 

That would have been AWESOME ha ha!
I just missed it thankfully. I got in the taxi line right after the hail. A second after I got into the Charger taxi it started pouring.
No. I wish I did.

 

Huayra?!

 

 

Great show, as always! Here's my handful of pics.

No idea. I don't think I've ever seen that before, and I certainly don't see it on my own post that you screen grabbed.

 

Nice another AZine'r there! BTW I didn't know you worked at Science of Speed. I exchanged my stock Accord exhaust system with either someone that worked there or his friend worked there, something along those lines. What an amazing shop! Loved seeing the race spec NSXs in there.
