Greg, I guess what I meant by follow up as it gets closer was follow up with everyone on here, not the hotel room. Although, we got a room on Freemont last year 2 weeks before SEMA, it was cool, but I'd much prefer to be back on the strip.

Yeah, the only problem with the Freemont is that you *have* to take a cab to the convention center. It is in reasonable walking distance however for anything between Ceaser's and the Riviera.

Yeah, I stayed at the Motel 6 two years ago and it is miles from the convention center. Parking at the center sucks, too.

I will be coming with 3 other people. If you can hook us up with hotel rooms we can swing creds for some people. I wasn't able to use the link to register due to a bug in the website, but I'll look around to register later. Will I have to state how many "employees" are attending at the time of registration?

Don't forget to see if you can secure some credentials elsewhere - I will do what I can, but I can't promise I will be able to get access for everyone.

JJ - I think we should be able to find space for you guys.

Im not sure what the maximum number of people I can register with me is, but I don't have a problem doing it as long as the person/s are willing to pay for some business cards too, since I will need them to register another "employee".

Question - what is this registration fee you guys speak of?

The people I'm getting my passes from told me I wouldn't have to pay for anything, but then again I think I'm getting vendor passes so it might be different.

John - Then you're all set. Sounds like they're picking up the tab for their vendor personnel.

If you have the means to secure them yourself, visit http://www.sema.org to register. If not, then read through the 1st page of this thread.

For anyone reading this, *if* you can secure your credentials without NICO, we encourage you to do so. We may be limitted on the # of "representatives" that we can get credentials for.

Me and my brother will be going to rep DeatschWerks. I think we are staying at the Paris though. But $40 a night... can't beat that.

Anybody know if they let you pass out business cards and/or flyers if you do not have a booth? I read something somewhere about no solicitations... seemed kinda odd, but I guess they need to make money on the booths.

Passing out business cards is not a problem. It's very easy to find yourself in a conversation with a vendor and they actually ask *you* for a business card. I wouldn't just go up to a booth and hand them your card though, I'd talk to them first, establish some type of friendly relationship before handing them your business card.

I am so bummed that I won't be able to make it to SEMA this year.

I was planning on it, but I am cancelling out.

My wife's mother was just diagnosed with a brain tumor. So I will need to stick around here. Any prayers you guys can toss our way would be much appreciated!

Hope you all have an awesome time at SEMA this year! I am def. going to go next year!!!

Later

$40 is for the entire room. That's $10/person/night if you have 4 to a room. You can't beat that.

And no, the westward ho is mostly old people. All the young hotties are on the south end of the strip. But with a south strip hotel comes higher rates. I think most of us would opt for cheaper hotel and cab riding down to the good end of the strip
Yea.....but the gamb|ing is better on the North End IMO.

Im just mad that I cant stay longer than 6 or so hours, because my girl does not have a ticket for the show.

I might have to get some roller skates.
