Sore feet and broken hearts couldn't keep us from our duty. We walked miles of concrete, capturing some of the best images and cataloguing some of the finest off-road products in the world. To the millions of readers who frequent ORC, thank you for being right there with us at the 2002 SEMA Show.

If not for you, the off-road community here at ORC would simply not exist as the second largest motorsports website in the world. Without your onslaught of requests and comments, such features as the legendary Girls of SEMA 2002 would not have been invented.

It's to you that we owe this.

TOPPING THE LEFT: The Pirelli Tire women had their marching orders directly from the Andretti boyz as Indy 500 Champion Mario Andretti supervised from the sideline. These girls were laughing and jumping around as the crowd of men and women watched from the aisles.

UP HIGH AND FLY: The Black Flys/Desert Syndicate women rocked the back of the lower South hall. Wearing the trademark sunglass of all desert racers and representing the gorgeous women of the off-roading community, these girls are not paid professionals as many of the others are, they are straight out Glamis beauties who ride on the weekends and are not afraid to have a little sand down their pants.

HARD LEFT: Dressed in police officer's Sam Browne utility belt, this model was held in the grasp of this automotive buyer from Argentina. Not only were his hands full, but she had to draw her weapon to force the issue. She called out on her radio to the Weatherman Bob Steinberger, but he did not respond. No rescue was on the way this time. He's on his own.

TWO'S NOT A CROWD: Held in check by the flash of the camera, these models asked for repeated photographs with this Mexican stallion, who was snatched from his photographer duties.

RED HOT AND ALL BUSINESS: It wasn't long or many aisles away before we met this hot model, Veronica, who was working at the Modern Image Wheels display. Wearing red and sporting an excellent personality, this woman is an Ivy league graduate with emphasis on marketing and business management. According to Modern Image Wheels, her grade on this day was an A+.

TWO FOR SHOW AND GO: Riding desert race vehicle by day and looking gorgeous by night, the women of www.desertsyndicate.com and Black Fly lead the pack in ability to be flexible and have fun, but still be absolutely gorgeous.

UP AND TIGHT: Shawn Lucero of Arceo Custom Wheels of North Hollywood, California marched down the rows of tire manufacturers with these two Irresistible babes.

PLAYMATE ARRON: You may remember Arron from Playboy magazine or even the Off Road Expo earlier last month. But if not, you can be sure to catch up with her at a Toyo Tire dealer near you.
