I’ll be there with a few others. Staying at the Riviera Bring good shoes. Your feet will be killing you. Go to [www.semashow.com](http://www.semashow.com) and map out where you want to go and check out. I’m not lying when I say the show is huge. I’m assuming you already have your pass for it? ---

> [@Mike93](#): > > To those who are going, are you going through work or just on your own??? Through my business, [RodandPiston.com](http://RodandPiston.com) You do need credentials to get in. And it’s only $15 a person. But they do have to approve you. After you get approved the first year, you are alumni for the following years and don’t have to go through the approval process anymore. ---

You will have to send in a business card, letterhead, proof of business, etc. At least thats what I had to do when I first signed us up 5 years ago. This year the featured car is the 2010 Camaro 🙂 ---

Check out Mark Abates Vue, Team ETC Castrol Caddy, T’jin and Nokturnal car club guys will be up at the show to. All of them will have insane vehciles. ---
