Default Sema????

I am entertaining the idea,
Just opened a shop. Checking to see if it's possible to take a camper and just go!!
Any body local for info on camp ground or even a shop to make it down and dirty?
Not much cash but, that's never stopped me before.

My son is on his way out to Sema right now. He is on layover in Denver waiting on the flight to Las Vegas. He works for Lokar. If you make it up there stop by and see him. Tell him you are from the Corvette Forum.

Getting in is the problem... You can't just buy tickets.... You have to be in the industry and pre-registered in order to get in. That said, if you can find passes, I don't see a reason that you shouldn't make a week of it. Circus circus has areas for campers to park and they are rather inexpensive as hotels go

I agree about tickets, You have to pre-register to get your passes.

that is the only way in as it is a trade show. there are things to see outside the convention center, etc, but it is not much more than going to a car show anywhere.

try to get a pass from an after market supplier. if you are a member of the national corvette club you can get a credential.
