Several Club members
had traveled to Las Vegas in the past couple years to take in
and enjoy everything that SEMA has to offer the car fanatic.
They would come back to Calgary with many stories and even more
photos.
The proverbial
"water-cooler" conversation led to talk of having a Club trek,
with as many members as were interested, to make the trip this year,
in late October - early November. Well, we planned it ...and it
happened.
A total of 18 people
went on the tour, which included 12 active Club members. By all
accounts, a good time was had by all. There is already talk of doing
this again next year.
The sheer size of
SEMA is amazing; you cannot see it all in one day, much less two
days. The cars, the products, the tools, the people, the
celebrities,.. wow.!!
Anyone you would see
on Speed Channel or Spike TV was there. First of all
the man himself,
Carroll Shelby, (yes, a couple of us got his autograph), as well as Jack Roush, Steve Saleen, Barry Meguiar, Boyd Coddington, Mario
Andretti, Dennis Gage, and many more.
It seemed like every
second booth had a 2005-07 Mustang in it. Several of them
were 2007 Shelby GT500 's.
