SEMA (Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association) is not a "car show" as such. The vehicles on display are there to showcase someone's product. In Peter's case, the manufacturers supplying wheels, air ride system, hydraulics, even the supercharger and paint would probably want to display the Dragon.
SEMA is huge - if you plan on seeing all the displays, you would need all four days, walking pretty much constantly, stopping for photos and the odd bite to eat. Walking the complete show is about 35 miles of aisles.
It is not open to the public. Best way to get in is to be creative with your credentials and pre-register. If you are pre-registered, they will probably only ask for ID to match the credentials you are picking up.
As car shows go - a lot of the cars and trucks on display are spectacular. Others are pretty standard fare, showing running boards, toppers, etc.
Bring good shoes!!!!! I thought I had, and by the middle of the second day had pretty bad blisters. Iris, being very sympathetic, helped out by wanting to walk between casinos, restaurants and shows every night. Damn - those buildings are big, and a long ways apart.
