Once again, Christmas is but a few pay checks away, and you're beginning to feel the Santa Claus crunch, wondering what you're going to stuff beneath the tree for yourself come December 25. Not to worry, the 2002 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show is but a few days away.

All this month, Off-Road.com will bring it to you. Loaded with photos of the hottest new products from the hottest new companies, the SEMA show is action-packed when it comes to turning your dream machine into reality and putting it on the road or in the dirt.

Last year, the SEMA Show reached a record number of exhibitors at 1,368. This year is much of the same record-breaking tradition for the SEMA Show. Officials are expecting well over 1,500 different exhibitors to deck the hauls of the Las Vegas Convention Center. It'll be remarkable, exhibiting its first-ever off-road section for us off-roaders. ORC is all over it. We'll catch up with some of our friends in the off-road racing world, such as ORC's own Scott Steinberger and his Ford Trophy Truck. Damen and Casey Jefferies will also be on hand, displaying their 2001 championship Trick Truck at the enormous BFGoodrich booth. If you remember, last year, BFG unveiled its dynamite Krawler TA that swept through the 2002 rock crawling season with victory after victory, finally concluding the season at the world famous SUPERCRAWL last month in Farmington, New Mexico.

What's better about the 2002 SEMA Show? This year, the show will be broken up into categories, making it easier to effectively power through the isles in search of the best automotive accessories on earth. We'll have a member of our staff on each of the hottest spots, seeking out the best of the best. Here's a look at what we've got ahead of us:

Stay tuned as we bring you daily updates from November 1, until well after the show, right here at Off-Road.com.
