The deadline for exhibitors of the 2011 SEMA Show to secure a spot for their ads in the official 2011 SEMA Show Directory and Pocket Guide is tomorrow, Friday, September 2. To secure your space now, contact Joe Sebergandio at Motor Media, 818/248-4449 or e-mail Joe at sales@motormediainc.com.

The SEMA Show Directory is one of the main tools that buyers use to locate companies on the SEMA Show floor. The information for the 2011 SEMA Show Directory listing is taken from SEMA Show exhibitor's Exhibit Space Rental Agreement submission. The deadline for changes to appear in the printed 2011 SEMA Show Directory is September 2, 2011.

Vehicle models that are expected to have a significant presence at the 2011 SEMA Show have been named as contenders for the 2011 SEMA Award. The coveted award recognizes the industry's hottest vehicle platforms by tallying every booth vehicle at the Show, then naming the most prominent vehicle models as SEMA Award winners in four categories: Hottest Car, Hottest Truck, Hottest 4x4-SUV and Hottest Sport Compact.

For the 2011 Show, the percentage of companies exhibiting in the Mobile Electronics & Technology section has increased by 17% when compared with 2010, and the section itself has grown in square footage by 9%.

The vehicle photo gallery featured on www.enjoythedrive.com includes photos of the more than 2,000 vehicles on display available for download. Each week, a category, vehicle models or makes are featured in SEMA eNews. This week's collection highlights all of the Mitsubishi vehicles that made the trip to Vegas in 2010.

Ford Motor Company will have something extraordinary to celebrate at the 2011 SEMA Show: 110 years of racing supremacy. In 1901, driving a car called Sweepstakes, Henry Ford defeated Alexander Winton in a race whose prize money helped him found his automobile company two years later. 

SEMA Show exhibitors who will have an industry icon, TV personality or any other celebrity or famous vehicle in their booth can gain additional exposure for the special attraction at the Show. Let SEMA know about your famous guest by submitting the Celebrity Appearance Notification form by Friday, September 2.

SEMA Show exhibitors can generate more product exposure by offering products to builders through the SEMA Show Products for Project-Vehicle Builders list.
