SEMA Show

Just checking to see if anyone was going to the SEMA Show this year Oct 30 - Nov 2nd in Vegas.

I'll be there! This better be worth me taking a 5 1/2 hour flight for a car show! It will be nice to meet some MBworld members in person, especially the ones from Cali that i would not normally have a chance to meet.

E55 (for sale if the right offer comes along)...too many others to list
Hey Josh,
Are you still going to do the BBQ on Saturday? My friend is letting me use his vacation home for the stay so I can host it there? If not we could all meet up on Friday night at my place and I will throw a happy hour bash?

Count James and I in for the Thursday thing. We should be there around lunch time on Thursday. That is if James can keep up with me?

Thank you again guys for trying to get me a ticket..I got one.
