Once Halloween is over, car lovers still get their share of treats from the news and photos trickling out of the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
The annual Specialty Equipment Market Association convention draws thousands of car buyers, media and industry insiders to Sin City each November, when manufacturers put their newest models on display.
With NASCAR headed west for this weekend’s AAA Texas 500 at Texas Motor Speedway, a few drivers opted to head just off “The Strip” to catch all of the action. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who is out for the season with a head injury, headed to the Chevrolet exhibit and shared what he saw on Twitter.
