SEMA- Behind the Scenes

As you guys may know, my Hakosuka is being featured in the Eneos booth at this year’s SEMA convention. I arrived early  yesterday (Halloween) to help situate the car.  These are some of my highlights just from the Central Hall.  Keep in mind there were many more builds I would like to share, but they were covered up or debuting through a press event later today.

On a side note, I wanted to use a wider angle lens, but unfortunately forgot that and my CP filter in the hotel.  Luckily the day before the show is just setup/last minute staging and no crowds. I was able to pretty much step back a bit and shoot without worrying about people being in the shot.  Tons more photos to follow over the next several days.  Enjoy these previews for now.

The above two RWB tandem looked almost identical, but note that they are two different builds.  RWB was EVERYWHERE and they still catch my attention

“Enhanced Body” RCF.  Tons of cool carbon fiber and this was repainted to Lexus’ Ultra Sonic Blue.

The above 930 turbo was amazing. I kept on coming back to take closer looks at this car.

I met up with Big Mike and checked out the debut of his 1992 Prelude. The color and details were amazing. I loved the widebody that was custom made for this car.
