Step 1. Establish yourself as an expert in the field of Camaro (and other unmentionable muscle cars) performance.
Step 2. Type up your resume and forward it to Apex Motorsports. Convince me that your know how, skill and charming persona will make me more money than it will cost me (don't forget unemployment insurance, uniform shirts, employer paid taxes, paid time off, etc)
Step 3. Leave your hometown and come to work in middle America. Work hard all year. (and if you have any complaints, see Apex Chase.)
Step 4. Pick up your SEMA badge and airline boarding passes about two days before SEMA. You're going to need a couple of days of prep for the event. I suggest a good pair of name brand running or walking shoes.
Step 5. We drink Margaritas or Beer on Tuesday and Thursday nights, the other nights are for straight Tequila.
Step 6. Don't heave last night's Tequila on any suppliers on the show floor. I suggest you stay away from the BBQ sandwich they serve in the cafeteria underneath the Ford display area. It's not as good as you would think for $9.
Step 7. Repeat yearly.
Unfortunately, as said above, it's an industry only event. A few people will find a way in, but it is highly frowned upon by SEMA. If you find a legitimate way to attend, I highly recommend going.

+1 on Step 6... SEMA 2008 - saw some dude make it up the stairs just to loose his $9 BBQ sandwich & last night's Tequila all over the carpet.
Really - 100% true, ask Chris M. he saw it too - I'm not kidding.
