I know.  We are headed to Day 1 of the 4 day SEMA show. 2400 booths dedicated to Specialty Automotive Equipment. There is way more than we will be able to see and do in 4 days but gonna give it a shot. 

I’ve wanted to come to SEMA for a long long time.  It finally came together. Pretty excited.

Well I admit I’m not planning to spend much time in the Automotive Finishes section (sorry Ron) but there is still a lot to see.

I kind of need to wrap it up by noon Friday.  I got asked to help out with a Funny Car team this coming weekend for the NHRA divisional event. I was visiting one of my old race buddies in the Pits of the NHRA TOYOTA nationals this past weekend and he asked if I still remembered how to service a Crower clutch. I thought for a minute and said. “Yea Sure” Looks like I’m gonna be the clutch guy on an Alcohol Funny Car this weekend.

What's funny is that even the newer guys have Ben figured out and they weren't even around for most of his shenanigans :lol:

Looks like a great time Tom. I like the 1st truck you posted.. Have you seen any of the reality TV guys?

Yes. All the reality TV guys and gals are here. They are all very cool and personable. I am not familiar with any of them really but the gang Im with knows every show and they point them out as we walk by their displays.

I don't watch very many of the shows, but I know that's "THE Farmtruck" . Him and his sidekick Azn are a riot.

Torque it till it snaps then, back off a half turn?  Or, just “finger tight”?

Day 1 at SEMA was unbelievable. Automotive sensory overload.  Its absolutely the most incredible custom Auto show on the planet.  We were there for about 5 hours and made it through about 25% of the exibits.

It's been an adventure, that's for sure. Maybe we should start a thread on all of @f7ben fuck ups over the years?  Forget that idea..... I just checked the server and we don't have enough disk space  :lol:

Dude there were thousands of great looking women there. There are 2400 booths/displays at SEMA this year. Every single one had at least 1 female “manning” the booth.  Not a single one was ugly.   I didnt take too many pictures of the girls.  I will try to do better today. 

Then throw in all the spectators. Wowza

Nights have been dropping prett consistently into the low 30’s.  This young hen had better start pulling out her GPS.  Not sure why she is staying behind.  ‘Course, the wife won’t stop feeding, so....

So.....when are you building the duck coop for your wife :snack:
