Not everybody gets to go to the SEMA show, so we are working hard to bring the best of the show to you. There are lots of places you can find shots of all the show cars, so we wanted to bring you the info you can’t get anywhere else. You know, something you can actually use.

Instead of gawking at all the cars, we sought out the tech gurus at the most innovative companies at the show. And we asked them what they had to help you make your hot rod life just a bit better. Take, for example, Lake Speed of Driven Racing Oil. Speed shared with us how to fight back against the harmful methanol they are putting in our fuel these days and the best way to protect your expensive engine during the tricky break-in process.
