I am registered but Halloween is on Wednesday, the middle of SEMA week this year and that "may" screw up my attendance since I cannot miss Trick or Treat with the kids!

We'll see???

I booked the Riviera Hotel, seemed like the last hotel near the convention center that was reasonable priced. Does anyone have feedback on this place?

Oh boy, you do Halleen with the kiddies and I get to do Halloween at hard Rock and Palms! I always enjoyed Halloween with the kids, but am having more fun now.

I'm in for another year. I think this makes 14.
Tickets, but no hotel yet.
The Rivera is a fine hotel for SEMA, and within walking distance of the convention center. (not a bad walk if you factor in the wait for the buses or the taxi line, at least walking you feel like you're getting closer to your hotel room)

Golf sounds like a great afternoon activity.
Mary, do they rent clubs?
The dessert this year will have to top the cats meow of last year.

05-31-2007, 09:45 PM
I'll come and do some sanding,cleaning,count bolts on the shop floor anything so I could be considered an employee so my wife and I could get in. Just wanted to throw that out there.I know that might sound like a joke ( well it is sort of funny if you think about someone on the floor counting nuts & bolts) but I'm actually serious. We never been to sema and were looking forward to going to this.

I won't know until a few weeks before SEMA. Our company waits until the last minute before they decide who they are going to send. I missed out on the PT dinner the last two years because of that.

I still need to decide if I want to have my Chevy II on a lift rack in our booth, Hunter Engineering. Our booth is usually close to the Chrysler booth. The only problem I have with the car on the lift rack is our salesmen demonstrating equipment with my car.

Just a suggestion, always buy the PT dinner ticket. They are NO problem to sell if you can not make it. People are usually waiting to buy one at the door.

Larry Callahan

Dinner will once again be at the Greek Isles. It's small but it's close and works. I just never got tie this year to find a larger place we could afford. Susan and I plan to spend a couple of extra days in Vegas this year to look at new places. I hope to have news soon. As usual it will be on Thursday night.

Watch for news on our dinner possibly by mid next week. The only thing I'm 100% sure of is it will be at the Greek Isle again and with any luck it will be the last year at that location. We so need a larger spot.

I envy ALL of you.:drool:
Last year was the first year I didn't go. In prior yrs, I was able to get in. I bought a business lic for "Sayer Racing" and made up some business cards. Last year they wanted more docs to prove that I was in the industry. They wanted my web site address, etc. I coundn't comply. SEMA is cracking down on us non-industry boys.
What I should do is try to piggyback on ChassisWorks since I spent over $10k with them for my front and rear clips.

MichaelM
08-16-2007, 11:56 PM
I'am a newcomer to the forum, may my wife and I join you for dinner?
We are arriving the week prior to SEMA for the Las Vegas Nats and a concert by some guy named Jimmy Buffett.After that the wife has me pretty busy with a few other shows up to the start of SEMA but I think I'm good for the evenings during.
Thanks,
Michael.

Jim Nilsen
08-17-2007, 05:52 AM
:cheers: If you don't like Jimmy Buffet I would be real surprised. I have seen him 2 times , 20 yrs ago and 10 years ago and each time a really great show. He has always seemed to get better with age.

MichaelM
08-18-2007, 06:35 PM
Just a little humorous understatement there.However in appreciation of your thoughtful assurance of having a good time at his show (I will) I shall hoist a margarita or two in your honor!

Never having been to AAPEX, I'm going over there this morning. Managed to sneek into the wing with all the good stuff yesterday and took a quick look around. There are about a million Mustangs here. :) Got to see the new Camaro. Took lots of pics yesterday only to discover that my usb cable is still attached to my desktop.....at work! The card reader on the laptop won't recognize the SD card either. I'll keep working on it.

The picture taking is turning into a disaster here. I brought my wifes little Nikon S9 and left my big camera at home. Sometime yesterday while walking around with it in my pocket I must have broken the lcd screen cuz about the top two thirds of it is now blank. Unfortunately there is no viewfinder on this thing so i'm out of luck. :(

Without a viewfinder I can't tell if it's even pointed in the right direction much less framed right. The lower left hand corner is all I get on the lcd. This is the pits. Oh well, I still get to see it all so it isn't all that bad. Too much fun. :)
