SEMA 2024: The Aftermath
It was exciting, as always, to be a part of the SEMA Show. We would like to thank everyone who participated in the show and visited our booth to feel and share the excitement. It was a thrill meeting you all and talking about everything automotive. Our booth was the stage for the best throttle response controller on the market, along with meet-and-greet opportunities and autograph sessions with the influencers we all know and love.
And once again, for the sixth time now, SEMA has honored us with the SEMA Data Excellence award!
SEMA Data is the central hub for product information with the most extensive product database in the aftermarket industry. It supplies manufacturers and resellers with education about product data standards and a comprehensive set of online data management tools.
Consumers rely on online shopping, so online data quality is crucial for manufacturers. They must maintain data quality that meets and exceeds industry standards.

SEMA is Now the Largest Show in Las Vegas
With over 160,000 visitors, the 2024 SEMA Show is now confirmed as the largest show held in Las Vegas, surpassing the last title holder, CES. Scattered over 1.6 million square feet of show floor within a 3 million square feet facility, the event was, as always, the stomping ground for automotive companies to show off their latest and greatest.
From wild builds that went instantly viral to manufacturer-backed concepts that set trends in the industry, SEMA 2024 treated visitors and exhibitors with the best-customized vehicles from every genre of the automotive scene, from vintage classics to hot rods, German to JDM, restomods to crazy trucks. Aside from the vehicles, the exhibitors showcased a plethora of their latest innovations, unveiled new performance parts and accessories, and manufacturers revealed their extensive support for vehicle customization through their services, programs, and packages.
Future of Electric Vehicle Customization
One of the highlights of this year’s show was battery-electric vehicles (BEV), their customization, and the concepts built around them. From rugged, off-road-ready concepts to EV-converted classics, the new era of vehicle customization will presumably be powered by batteries.
Custom car builders revealed their newest creations that push the envelope in almost all aspects, from body designs and paint colors to power outputs. The show highlighted custom car builders’ dedication to innovating unique customizations to create beyond-the-limit vehicles.
This year was the second time the show opened its doors to the public. If you were not lucky enough to visit, the SEMA Show live-streamed all four days for the first time, through the show’s YouTube and Facebook channels. This shows SEMA’s dedication to reaching out and engaging with a broader audience.
See You Next Time!
We had a blast at the SEMA 2024. It was the most exciting four days of the year for us to connect with the industry, individuals, and enthusiasts under one roof. It was a pleasure to offer the chance to get up close with the best throttle response controller and showcase how our unit works with the demo rig. We are delighted just to be a part of the show, and on top of that, we are once again awarded for Data Excellence by SEMA.
Another highlight of our booth was the chance to meet legends like Odi Bakchis, Blake Wilkey, Simen Olsen, Adam Knapik, Pleasent Cook, and Rome Charpentier. Every great thing has an end, and we had to pack up and leave eventually. We cannot wait for next year's SEMA, and we will be there hopefully.
Until next time, #LiveLifeFullThrottle!
