Monorail
With a stop directly in front of the convention center and another stop by the Westgate, where many SEMA Show activities take place, the monorail is a great option for getting to the SEMA Show each day.

With limited parking available for the 2019 SEMA Show, attendees are encouraged to use other available transportation options when traveling to and from the Las Vegas Convention Center.

To accommodate all Showgoers, the Las Vegas Monorail will extend its operational hours during the week of the SEMA Show. From November 5–8, Showgoers can board the Monorail and head to the Las Vegas Convention Center, one of the Monorail’s seven stops, starting at 6:00 a.m.

Stations:

  • MGM Grand Station
  • Bally’s/Paris Station
  • Flamingo/Caesars Palace Station
  • Harrah’s/The LINQ Station
  • Las Vegas Convention Center Station
  • Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino Station
  • SLS Station

Not only will the Las Vegas Monorail operate with extended hours, Showgoers can also purchase Monorail tickets at a discounted rate. To make the process even more convenient, Monorail passes can also be purchased through Android and iOS smartphones.

Discounted Ride Passes:

  • Single Ride: $5
  • 24-Hour Pass: $13
  • Two-Day Pass: $23
  • Three-Day Pass: $25
  • Four-Day Pass: $32
  • Five-Day Pass: $38
  • Seven-Day Pass: $49

“The Las Vegas Monorail is one of the many affordable travel alternatives that are easy to access,” said SEMA Vice President of Events Tom Gattuso. “With the Monorail’s extended hours and discount, as well as hotel shuttle services, taxis and ride-sharing options, Showgoers have great transportation choices each day of the Show.”

Look for Monorail kiosks throughout the Convention Center and at participating hotels. Purchase discounted Monorail tickets online or call 702-699-8200.

Subaru

The Subaru BRZ just received a facelift a little more than two years ago, but here are new shots of yet another makeover, which comes as a little surprise. The prototype snapped at the German Nürburgring is the first sighting of a second update to the current BRZ.

It’s clearly visible the BRZ will receive a more aggressive-looking front bumper, plus modified headlight technology. The taillights will feature a new design, and we can also make out some modifications to the trunk. Nothing is known yet about a possible replacement for the current high-revving 2L 200-hp boxer engine.

Expect an official debut in early 2020.

Young builders all over the country are competing in the SEMA Young Guns Regional competition for a chance to win a trip to the 2019 trade-only SEMA Show and have their vehicle displayed at the Show. Austin Haynes joined SEMA at the Street Machine Nationals in Du Quoin, Illinois—one of the competition’s Regional Qualifier stops.


Austin Haynes’ ’70 Chevrolet C10 frame-off restoration took him about six years to complete. 

Haynes’ ’70 Chevrolet C10 has come a long way since he acquired it as a sophomore in high school. The frame-off restoration took him about six years to complete. With a clean, stock look in the cockpit, the most notable changes aren’t just skin-deep. The truck has been lowered by flipping the rear end and using drop spindles and lower coils on the front while the entire body has been smoothed over. The classic pickup is dressed in a Mandarin Pearl finish. The powerplant under the hood is an immaculate 461 big block complemented by chrome and stainless-steel components.

The Battle of the Builders competition celebrates the amazing craftsmanship and talents of people who create and build some of the most unique cars in the world. The “Young Guns” classification is exclusive to up-and-coming builders who are under 27 years old and have performed the majority of the work on their vehicle.

The Regional Competitions open the program up to 10 more “Young Guns” who may not already be showcasing a vehicle at the SEMA Show, by partnering with event organizers throughout the country. Grand Prize is an all-expenses-paid trip for two to the 2019 SEMA Show, transportation of the winner’s vehicle, a designated feature spot, and entry into the Battle of the Builders competition.
