I love that little quip:
Exactly how well that would fly in court is really debatable, and how they would enforce it is comedy. What would they do, kick you out of SEMA for having a meeting at the Bellagio? Uh, wait, you aren't AT SEMA, so it would be difficult to remove you from SEMA.

Even funnier is that there are probably 2-8 conventions happening in Vegas at the same time. So none of the exhibitors from other conventions can have meetings since they are not part of SEMA?
I will be going but I also was selected by sema for the 2009 SEMA Show Research Program.
Whatever that means. I guess they give me credentials and I take notes lol, then share the research on forums I visit. lol.

See you guys there...We're displaying our racecar in the Derale Cooling Products booth...Should be fun, I'm a SEMA virgin...
I went to the Sema show last year. It was a good time. Saw lots of good stuff. I was there mostly for the diesel aspect of it. I didn't see much that i wasn't already aware of just from browsing the net and message boards but it was still good to see all the sights. Lots of nice vehicles there.
I got the chance to meet the EFILive crew, Socal guy and McRat. They were deep in some talk about how the oil injector spraying on the bottom of the piston will actually alter performance... it was pretty heavy duty and I didn't stick around for long. I've got a long way to go before I'm worried about things like that!
