SEMA 2018 - Nobody famous is coming

Illustration for article titled SEMA 2018 - Nobody famous is coming

Last year, I was excited to see and meet the Roadkill boys in person (I even noted I acted like a complete dunce in front of Mike Finnegan on a SEMA 2017 post here on Oppo). Due to Motor Trend on Demand throwing the series (and Dirt Every Day and HotRod Garage) behind a stupid paywall (as did RoosterTeeth and a few other content producers; totally different rant), I’m finding myself not stoked in seeing anyone “famous” in the industry this year.

Ugh, at least I can fulfill one of my friends requests for Model Posters and Calendars......And go Thrifting. Savers and Goodwill on Tropicana.

Anyone know where I can find tons of VHS tapes for sale other than these two places in Vegas that is easily accessible by RTC?
