Another day at SEMA

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Snapped some more pics from the second day of SEMA. Found some really cool bikes and artwork along the walk. The Kicker Big Air Bash went off as per usual. Monster coming in big with sponsoring the party and holding the private VIP party.

Gotta have a wristband to get in. Provided a sweet view of the 50 races.

They had a pretty good mix of Pros and Joes and some Celebs doing the racing. Most of them sucked ass though lol

Some more SEMA stuff…

Worlds first 15 series tires. The best way to waste $5000 on wheel as you hit your first speed bump.

Flat black is old news but damn does it look sexy on a Lambo

Don’t forget a matching custom wrapped leather baby seat for your Ferrari!

The show had a pretty good mix of “green” and alternative energy vehicles. This solar powered battery cell car was neat.

Stopped by the Roland Sands Designs booth and ran into a friend. No, sadly I don’t mean the chick in the pic but my friend Cameron working the booth. If I ever have the money to build a custom bike, these guys would be the one creating it.

Moving on I ran into a custom Rukus booth. There is a pretty good following behind these little scoots

It was interesting to see so much bike stuff at SEMA. The industry is really hurting, obviously. Fortunately, most car guys also like bikes so I don’t think anyone was complaining. This bike was pretty slick and cheap.

Ken Block’s skills don’t stop when it snows. In case you were wondering!

Gotta have a matching sled right?

2009 SEMA Show – Day 1

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

Got in to Vegas today to hit up the SEMA Show. I am happy to be here since I couldn’t make it last year. I caught the last couple hours of the show and was able to snap some pics of a few cool rides. I’ll be adding more pics as the days past. Enjoy!

Okay, these wheels are so ridiculous I had to snap a pic. SERIOUS?

They can officially call this years show the Camaro Show. They are everywhere!

09sema002

Not really sure what to think about these wheels!

09sema005

The Rally X Fighter is bad!

09sema006

Toyota decided to spice up their booth and turn a truck into a giant video game

09sema007

At least they had bikes on top!

09sema008

The Raptor test drive machine is nothing like actually driving one but it was still fun!

09sema009

Pretty popular at SEMA shows are these “built-a-car” mini shows they put on. Some builder builds some car during show hours so you can see it all come together in front of your eyes. Kinda cool but played out.

09sema010

Traxxas stole my idea! I am going to build and bring a truck to SEMA dirty like this one year…

09sema011

So far my favorite car of the show.. *drool*

09sema012

The engine… *drool drool*

09sema013

This ones for you James!

One mean green carbon beast

09sema017

Sigh… one day I am going to build one of these

09sema018

Not every day you see $1,000,000 cars

09sema019

Now this is a classic ride. Totally cool!
