the SEMA show is pretty cool...
first day today, and I only got through about 1/8th of all that there is to see.

I was surprised to find many Mercedes-Benz modded out and splattered with sponsorship deals and decals. I'll post all the pics later this weekend when I get back to Cali. Driving up here was hecka fun too ! Hitting 120-135 on certain stretches of the I-15.

I dropped the ball on the Vegas GTG just because I have way too many commitments. However for those who are in Vegas for SEMA, let's all hook up Friday or Saturday.
