This I know, but in order to actually conduct "business" I walk the show on Monday (pre-crowds). This way you can actually network, without having to deal with the other 3.65 million people trying to see the "new" thing.

So you are telling me that you don't have a booth number? Are you outside? Sorry man, but I miss alot @ SEMA. Way too much.

Thanks anyways,

Yuji

My favourite part is when the cameraman bails shooting to save his own life. Intense!

Definitely not professional 'drifting' or even doughnuts. But it looks fun ripping apart those tires, especially towards the end.

I found this thread interesting, still wondering about the brake dust and the ventilation. Not as concerned about the strength, but maybe I should be. Here is the You Tube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUfXR5X8Ecg for those who can't use IFilm at work (like me). Cool concept though, hope it works out for you Dmoney!

Due to the brake dust issues and possible brake cooling issues (Unless you run some brake ducts) I probably wouldn't run these on my daily driver. However, I can already see some of my possible future project cars running these rims at car shows though. It really depends on the price since I'd use them strictly as a show rim.
