SEMA PINEWOOD DRAG RACERS PREPARE FOR STAGING


The checkered flag for SEMA's inaugural Pinewood Drag Race Sponsored by Fellers and DUB Publishing drops tomorrow! More than 80 children from Victory Junction Gang Camp and Childhelp, the two charities SEMA is supporting through the fundraising activities of the Installation Banquet & Gala Fundraiser, have built race cars sponsored by generous patrons.

There's still time to make a donation to this great display of industry spirit, innovation and friendly competition! CLICK HERE.
