Why are we not at SEMA?
 

Just curious...

Who else was left behind and why...
:willy:

I am with you...not at the show :( I think there are a few reasons, mainly having to do with the fact that it is just a normal school week for me at BC, so I cant really just take a random week off. I guess I never really even consider it an option, I wonder what I would think if it were at a time I could take off???

As long as the guys that are there supply us with enough pictures...then I am okay with it.

I thought about going this year, but I spent two weeks in Yosemite instead. The worst part for me is 6 guys from work are going on the company dollar and they couldn't get me in. :mad: So, the new Power Wheels toys might be a little cooler next year at least. ;)

1. I'm broke

B. I need to focus my spending on my chevelle.

III. I need to save my vacation time because I've got a lot planned already for next year.

I had other stuff going on this week, but thanks to Hur. Katrina, it wouldve been impossible to go anyway.

If at all possible I will try to go in '06.

With a 16 month old, and another due in Jan., the car, home improvements, just not enough money and time to go around. But watch out next year, the wife is also talking about it, saying it sounds like a good time.

I'm with the rest you no money and no vacation left........

I was supposed to go, I had the reservation at the Lateral-G hotel (Treassure Island) I still have the tickets to the show... My wife had reserved the vacation at work, (she is going to Spain instead).

BUT

I had to stay home because of my work. Some "stupid" customer booked a seminar for me this week and I had to attend it. Why just this week? :( :(

Well there will be other opportunities.


And for those that are there: PLEASE POST PICTURES INSTEAD OF DRINKING BEER. :D :D :D

Wanted to go, but vacation overlap plus couldn't figure out how to get in considering the tightened entrance qualifications...

1. BROKE

2. too many other things going on.

3. BROKE

4. I would have to leave the wife at the slots so I could look at the women...uhhhh...cars.

5. And did I mention I was BROKE.

Well the reason I didn't go was I had two test the week of SEMA, then the syllabus changed and I took both those test last week. I could have went, but I didn't get my PT dinner tickets in time. I had a chance to go w/ Kicker, and stay in a suite for free but I needed to stay home this year and work on my schoolwork. Next year I am 100%.

You guys arent alone.
I have always wanted to go but there is just no way I could afford it. Especially flying from Michigan. However I am glad everyone is having fun. At least with living in Michigan I can easily attend Woodward every year. :)
Working on my 69 Camaro and my girlfriends 67 Mustang is consuming all our money right now. :D

I wish i could, broke, school, work... clients... bah... no fun for Eric

Planned on going all year, this would be the third year in a row, but about two months ago we decided to put the money into the camaro and try like hell to drive it next year. Also, I took the wife on a Mexican cruise last month as a HUGE thank you for agreeing to allow the build cost of the camaro to...well...basically double! She shares the 'build it right the first time' mentality...thank God for that!! :thumbsup:

Boxes of toys
 

Tony, you have to get the Camaro done. You don't have any more rooms to store the boxes of parts in!

Oh yea, thank the Mrs. for the wonderful chocolate chip cookies the other night. Wish I could have found a wife that supported my passion for performance cars. Lucky dog!!!

You are saying what I am thinking!

Hey Tony!!

It's great with support like that from the family.

I guess you still have a lot of work to do on it but if you work hard it will be done before you know it. Keep going :thumbsup:


Jan

Thanks for stopping by, I'll have to head over and check out the nova soon!!

Yep, buying parts is BIG fun, but finding places to store them can be a challenge!!

Yep, I have a ton of work left to do, but I'm back on the project and trying to move forward at least weekly if not daily...thanks for adding a little more wind in my sail...it's much needed!! And yes, I can't imagine trying to take on a project like this without an understanding wife...:yes:
