The Best Western is the only nice hotel in Pahrump from what I've seen. Do NOT stay at the Nugget.................

Like Greg says, we now stay in Vegas and drive out and back; it's only about an hour or so.

it's listed as 63-69 miles depending on who you believe. Should be about an hour or so on the weekend, very little traffic vs commute times during the week.

If you're going to be at Sema, you've got to do the OUSCI event. Guarantee you'll love it.

You better hunt me down and shake hands at least! Although maybe we'll get to meet up at SEMA.... I'll be there all week. Many of the guys on here have my number and can text me to pick a meeting spot.

Trust me on this ----- get as many cell phone numbers of the people you want to meet up with BEFORE you go to SEMA --- it's impossible to just run into someone, and the place is so dang big you need to be able to text in order to get together.

I've emailed Jimi to volunteer for "work" at OUSCI "as usual" so if he wants me --- I'll be out there in the sun frying for another chance to hang out at the best event I do all year. Love that stuff!

That's what I've always done.... just keep your room --- it's over relatively early and it's a super easy drive home even in the dark. Most of us fly out of LV - so you've got to come back to "town" anyway.
