HOLY HELL!!! Bi-Turbo Gallardo!!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Thanks for the pics!

Very nice buddy!! How did you score tickets to get in anways?

There are certain cars that the guys at DUB shouldn't be allowed to touch.

Also, I lolled at the difference in brakes from the Ferrari to the 350z.

Thanks for the SEMA pics. I'll say this much, there are a lot of ugly modded cars out there! Haha.

That looks like you had a great time! What would you say was your favorite, Ron? Thanks for the pics!

yay chip foose!!!

Thanks for sharing the pics.
It the next best thing to being there for the rest of us.
SEMA is still on my Top 10 List of things to do.
From your pictures there is no doubt I won't be disappointed when my time comes.

Oh man, SEMA was a blast. We walk it for 3 day, 8 Hour a days and there was still more to see. At a place like SEMA, there is no way to pick out you favorite car. They are all just over the top. My favorites was meeting Chip Foose, Stacy David, Brandon Bernstein, seeing the original Knight Rider K.I.T, and all the exotics (models that is). I did see Mario Andreti, Tanner Faust, Bill Goldberg, and that chick who does top fuel. Getting tickets to SEMA is not that hard. It does require an initial investment but does have its benefits.

1. Start an LLC- Can do it at the DMV I think and cost about $100
2. Create a business card
3. Get a tax license- Not sure how much it costs but isn't to bad.
4. Sign up to become a member of SEMA (about $100 a year I think)
5. Get Tickets

Once you have that, you can go to the show, network and buy wholesale. Then you can sell parts to all you friends for a small margin. Don't forget to report your earnings to the IRS.

Well,, Instead of me going through all that trouble.. I can just have you get me tickets next year and we'll carpool hehe

my manufacturer pays for our passes every year

Well see Eric.. your in that line of buisness.. so you are able to get in.. On the other hand, Ron is in the home construction biz.. so for him to get tickets to an automotive exclusive members only kinda things was what I was wondering how he did it.. I was gonna go one year and was gonna have my friends boss hook me up with some tickets. but that fell through cause his boss got scared thinking he would get in trouble some how..

Thats is how I got in, by boss hooked me up with some tickets. But he did it how I explained it above. Formed an LLC and signed up for SEMA as a retailer. Not too hard and I am sure with as many people we have in CMZC, a few people could get together and make it happen.
