SEMA is undoubtedly the largest car show in the world. Every year is something different, but this year I decided to mix things up. This time around I decided to sleep overnight in the Las Vegas convention center in the midnight hours of SEMA 2019. I got to have a peaceful and in depth look at Paul Walker's Ford Escort from Fast and Furious, B is For Build's LSX swapped Lamborghini Huracan, TJ Hunt's Street hunter kit Supra, a stolen Challenger Hellcat, and so many more project that made it to the event. Nothing is as wonderful but eerie as walking around a car show which have over 30,000 attendees a day all by yourself. So how in the world did I get this all access and opportunity! Let me show you around SEMA 2019!
If you had to sleep in one of the cars at SEMA which one would you choose?
ThatDudeinBlue Rob's 4 rotor. Gonna be painful, but I'll just drown it out with their accomplishment.
The awd hellcat
That Escort
One of the Mustangs. The seats are comfy.
In the B is for Build LS swapped Lambo Hurican
So you were the one that stole the nitrous express intake manifold
junior villalobos I was just thinking that lmao 😂
beat me to it
🤣🤣
haha! That was the first thing that came to my mind!
?? Someone stole an intake manifold from SEMA?!
Quite literally a introverted car persons dream.
(x)ntps be like.
Literally me
Other UA-camrs: upbeat music and exciting footage
TDIB: very calm music
Other UA-cam: sleep in IKEA
Thatdudeinblue: sleep in SEMA
🤣🤣🤣 bout spit out my drink reading this
This has to be the best vlog ever made
Well done ThatDudeinBlue 👍
Thanks so much! Really loved making this one!
Imagine sleeping in your car that’s on display before SEMA opens
IDK about SEMA, but it certainly gets done at other big car shows and events!
@thestradman
As far as I am concerned, this is the best SEMA video this year! Because that’s how I would want to experience it, no crowds 👍🏼
Absolutely loved the more personal and quiet take on Sema haha. Love your different style of content always. Also on the electric cars, I feel like they’ll be even more popular with car enthusiasts with some sort of manual transmission setup which I feel like exists already?
it's going to be a game of gearing to see who's fastest at that point. I'm interested in where all this is going.
Rumbuilder yeah it’s definitely gonna be a crazy way we do cars in maybe a decade. Manufacturers have already dropped manual for so many cars, I’m curious if it’s even worth having something like that in the electric world lol.
@@dapetdetective lets meet back here in 10 years and discuss. lol
Rumbuilder hahha I’m so down with that! Lol
The Webasto concept car for their EV supplier buisness is Mustang Lithium with Manual Shifter. It uses a highly modified MT 82, odd choice but i guess it survives the massive 1000lb/ft torque. The thing i like most about Electric Cars there are far more compatible parts and you can force wierd combinations. You can literally run a Tesla Drive Unit with a Chevy LG Chem battery. That kind of massive custom functionality to Builders is what will grow the next generation of Car Enthusiasts. Not just buying specialized parts from a OEM. Figuring out your own combination like a Frankenstein engine swap.
“Bluetooth drive-shaft”
Amazing man! That was the most tranquil and exciting SEMA experience. Love it. I hope you get to do this again.
BTW, please consider doing Volume 2 of this vid with your extra footage. 🎥❤️
This is by far the best SEMA 2019 coverage I have seen. It was a fun spin on the average SEMA review/highlights and sounds like a fun experience to not only get an up close review of the cars without a million other people around but also stay IN a camper IN SEMA!
This is awesome! I was expecting a car to try to prank you though. Since there is a good chance you will see this, David, I wanted to say I am beyond proud of you. Between TDIB and the Life of Patt channels, and your Patterson Car Care line, which I use, you have stayed true to you, blessed us with quality content, and reignited the car enthusiast in me.I am saving for a Mustang that I will get in a few years. Keep up the good work, and keep staying true to yourself.
David: * spends 24 hrs in SEMA *
Mrbeast: finally! a worthy opponent
good guy David, recorded everything before the show starts, but didn't leak any of the builds before they're unveiled. My respect to you sir 🙇🏻♂️
That "Hellcat" actually started as a Police Pursuit Charger, Well that's what Mopar Insiders said
Travis Toole that’s....highly ironic.
@@ThatDudeinBlue Yeah they took the PP Charger and turned it into a WB Hellcat. Pretty cool car
That's why it has the AWD System
Did the cops say they needed.......to quote humphrey from donut media "Moww Powah baby!!!!!"
Where’s the intake David!?!?
That is amazing to see the halls empty. I want a 24/7 pass next year !!! NO CROWDS would be AWESOME !!!!
Dude, that was one of my favorite videos you've ever done. Thanks for sharing that one of a kind looks at a show that in every other video is a mad house. place almost looked haunted. good work.
I heard the ghost of "actually unique and interesting builds" still haunts the halls 👻👻👻
man, this was so cool! i hadn't cared much about SEMA coverage from this year at all until I saw this.
Best SEMA coverage ever. Thanks for the uniquely relaxed view of the show.
8:27 That's not just a slammed Ferrari David, that's a slammed 288 GTO Ferrari. Insane.
Dude you're the man for getting that type of coverage. Can't wait till next year C8 fest at sema hope you're there overnight again
I think car modifications will focus to suspension tuning more than anything else
Patrick Murray I agree. That and even more cosmetics because they will all start having similar lines so people will want to make theirs look different from the rest. I also think interior modification like the door panels and stuff will become more popular as people are becoming more and more obsessed about having a luxury look and feel. But we will see
I've been watching since just a little bit after you got Smurrf, and this is definitely in the top 5 tdib videos. Nice work!
Omg start a TFIL Overnight style video series David! Lol look them up
Love those guys also sam and colby
Leo Cablao I tried a few paranormal exploration videos on my channel but didn't pick up, so I went back to car stuff
I had an exhibitor pass, and was allowed early entry and late stays. As a photographer, it was incredible. I hardly spent any time there during show hours. Once the show started, I left to the hotel to edit photos until the show closed and I went back until 9-10 pm
I personally loved this perspective of SEMA. 👌
Best sema vlog of 2019 and i watches alot of them
This B is for Build Huracan looks awful, reminds me of someone restoring a crashed car from 3 other cars.
I disagree, it might not be everyone's style, but it's cool none the less. He and his projects have inspired many people to get off youtube and get in the garage. He started out as a guy with little to no skills in the car world, to a competent custom fab and auto body guy. He's showed us every step in his journey. I'm impressed at all he's done.The car is going to be fun to watch as he tunes it and learns to drag race.
@@Rumbuilder Dude, I'm not saying that it's a pile of crap, it just looks like one
Michael I dig the white and black. I’d like to see it in person. I love the turbo placement.
@@Rumbuilder Oscar did a great job!
It really does look like shit glad I'm not the only one who thinks that on top of that it's generic LS swap cause it's cheap as fuck
This was a really well done video David! Loved it. 😊
David, you're a great guy, & a genius & an artist. I so look forward to meeting you one day. Will always have blue vehicles 'til then. ;-)
BLUE SQUAD 🙏🏻
@@ThatDudeinBlue
I’m gonna have a midnight blue 240Z one day
I absolutely love this video and getting to see all the cars with noone around. Its like you are the Grinch sneaking around checking out all the cool stuff!
Thanks for stopping by the booth and checking out Track Attack! You will have to drive it again with the new supercharger and engine setup!
Hmmm maybe your the one who stole that intake manifold 🤔
Do this again next year... Its awesome watching sema around with no people hahahah no distractions!!
Hope you do another sema video like this in the future. I love this calm sema.
This is my favorite SEMA tour so far.
Getting to sleep in SEMA is definitely an incredible experience. I am glad that ThatDudeinBlue is the one that showed us the experience.
Feel blessed dude! this has got to be one of those goals in life you can never even imagine until the opportunity is there and your in the moment, alone in the presence of so many masterpieces
Hi David. Nice vid. Liked b4 watching because i knew it was goin to b good
Never thought I’d here about a car running a 3 second 1/4 mile, that’s something I really wanna see!
Google it then
Top Fuel dragsters are pretty insane
I absolutely love this vlog/review or whatever it is. It really shows something that very few others get to see.
Damn, this was a nice change of pace from all the other SEMA footage of flocks of people everywhere and hard to hear audio. Well done!
Wow man you have come along way. So cool you deserve all the subscribers you’re going to get from this video.
MrBeast: "Write that down write that down!"

They also have an electric 6 speed mustang.
Designed by Webasto built by Mustang Racing Technologies MRT. Webasto wants to get in on the EV parts supplier buisness. They seem to have expertise in Heating & Cooling, which is very important to high performance EVs.

This was the best SEMA video I have ever seen!
having worked/working for the company that does the security for that show, i can definitely say that you getting to spend overnight inside the show was a rare experience, 99% of the time we don't allow anyone on the show floor after hours, hell we even shadow the cleaners as they're doing their duties. that probably took a few phone calls and some money to get that approved lol.
Us software engineers will be the future of tuning with more EVs coming to market 😂
Hey, That must have been a dream come true. What a fantastic opportunity they gave to you. I think this will be one of those stories you will be telling your grandkids. Great video 💯💯💯👍👍👍
Honestly, only because the bathroom is so nice, I’m gonna bookmark this video to keep those campers in mind.
This has to be your best vlog ever! Awesome experience! Thank you for sharing!
Wow, there is a reason not many people get opportunities like this. Well done with this channel you won't forget this experience.
This has to be THE BEST SEMA video I've ever seen. I hope you can go it again next year.
Loved your behind the scenes look at SEMA! From someone who's never been there it really put it into perspective!
It was like SEMA after the apocalypse and you miraculously survived. Now that's the way to take it in. I do enjoy trade shows but not the crowds. Nice video, thanks. 👍✌️🇺🇸
David, the car at 6:00 is actually a C6 Corvette underneath. Dash cluster gives it away. Saw you at SEMA bro (didn't stop ya) and would usually see ya at GridLife or DriftAtlanta...coincidentally, we both moved from the northern territory to Atlanta same year, but I've now actually moved to Vegas. Been watchin ya long time bro. Finally got my channel goin. Only 999k more subs and I'll catch ya!
KnightDriveTV do you know who made the rear end? I have been trying to find more information but am having a hard time.
The vibe is very scary it gives u a glimpse into what it would be like if there was a show and then a serious thing happened and wiped out everyone and you came up and decided to explore and everything’s like it was left except no humans
Great job this was my favorite Sema vid by far
That's pretty cool getting to experience SEMA without all the crowds and noise.
Wow! Incredible video, that camper is pretty dope too!
Outstanding use of time! I can't image a better way to visit SEMA than without a crowd!
your so lucky. SEMA was SOOO crowed I could never have gotten any of these shots!!
That blue 350Z won the Cleo award and the Silvia HK was turned into a Hotwheels casting for 2020.
Out of the 100s of SEMA videos this was the best
As an autistic introverted car guy, this was top notch quality dude. If I ever get the chance to go to SEMA, I'd happily do this at night. The ambience is what thrills me. Like an empty airport or Walmart. A place that is usually busy has a totally different vibe when there are no people around its almost spooky yet calming. In essence,
The Quiet before the Social storm.
SEMA officials called, they want you to pay the cost for staying overnight
WOW 😮 very nice David!!!!
Great footage and love the editing!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
The cars look way better just because there isn’t all the people in the shots ?! Makes a big difference wow
Jamies harlequin made it in the video 😁
Amazing well put together video love your stuff man
This has a strange but magical like "David in Wonderland" kind of vibe to it. Freaking loved it great video!
That's awesome! 👍 Like you said that's the best way to enjoy check in at all the cars.
Since you and Dustin Williams are both film students. I wanna see you guys do a huge collaboration for the auto world. Kinda, like Shane and Jeffrey did for the beauty world. I think it would be cool and interesting to see what you to could put together.
This was probably the most interesting sema vlog! Thanks for the cool perspective David🙌🏽
Hey man! Loved that turbo mustang video! You do awesome reviews, keep it it!
Dude. This is the way to see sema. Give me a 4hr video and ill watch the whole thing start to finish
Loved this video. Had chills as you walked around. I think this is the only way I want to see SEMA. Great video. Thanks!
Sema seems so much more peaceful at night , can’t wait to go again next year hopefully this time with my Crz
Walks right past Post Malone’s C10 truck and doesn’t even bat an eye! 😂😂😂
Well, the rest of our SEMA coverage is now invalid! Thanks for the explanation on how you got to stay all night, looked awesome with noone there!
Over night in sema huh? Well now we know who stole the intake! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
David did you get to help be a judge for the battle of the SEMA builders
PSE Mentalist not this year, did in 2017 though! Pretty stressful as you can imagine.
The RX-7 was also on Doughnut Media's Bumper to Bumper, and that had to be sooo freaking cool to "camp" in SEMA!!!
That's FRICKEN AWESOME!! Holy crap. You could have made a 3 hr video and I would have watched the whole thing.
Dude that's sik some people can only dream of making sema and you got to sleep there legend keep up the great content my dude
That was one of the best sema vids no hustle no bustle just a relaxing vid so cool man!!
Honestly the biggest after market for electric cars would probably be aerodynamics upgrades.
You could theoretically change the battery or the output power but I'm thinking aero and suspension/tires would be all you could realistically do for mods
This takes the cake,
This is my favorite video that you have ever done!
Huuuuu that’s our LS3 350z!!! Thank you for checking it out 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
Absolute MadLad
Man, I would probably end up filming for hours if left to my own devices. Slider shots for days! I am no stranger to people getting in the way, but at car shows people tend to steer clear of the guy with the 48" slider setup. I bet I would get bowled over trying the same thing at SEMA...
It's on the list to do at least once in my life. It would be cool to check out all the insane builds people have done. I am curious though, how many steps did you take at SEMA? I bet it's some insane amount!
This is the most unique SEMA content in a while. Really cool.
On Tuesday morning in a giant crowd of people I heard you talking and started looking around. You talk continuously and very loud so it was easy to spot you. I had things to do and you looked like you were heading somewhere so I didn't say hi. SEMA was awesome this year. I hope next year there are tons of C8's!
I love it! An that Trailer was sick! I would've woke up later and came wearing a robe while drinking some coffee with everyone walking around like: "Top of the morning to ya!" Lol .... Indeed the best way to see SEMA.
For the blue BMW 2002, a couple of things to mention. It is in fact an S55 motor (from an M4) The blue is San Marino blue from the new M5.
I can relate to cars better than I can relate to people. So this video is like my dream come true.
I'm procharging my 06 RT right now finally got the piston weights now it's just waiting for the machine shop to finish the block and rotating assembly.
