The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) and Velocity announced that the one-hour special “SEMA: BATTLE OF THE BUILDERS 2015” will make its world premiere at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Monday, Feb. 1. Featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the trade-only 2015 SEMA Show, and in-depth interviews with leading car designers, “SEMA: BATTLE OF THE BUILDERS 2015” chronicles the best automotive designers and builders in the world as they prepare to debut their newest creations for thousands of car super fans at the 2015 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
In just its second year, the 2015 SEMA Battle of the Builders competition included nearly 300 builders representing all segments of the automotive industry, including hot rods, off-road vehicles and sport compact cars. The finalists were selected by David Freiburger of Hot Rod Magazine, RJ de Vera of Meguiar’s and Fred Williams from Petersen’s 4Wheel & Off Road. After the judges announced the top 10 finalists, the top 10 builders then judged one another and voted to determine who would be named the Ultimate Builder of the 2015 SEMA Battle of the Builders competition.
The winner was revealed during SEMA Ignited, a consumer-facing event held on the final day of the SEMA Show. For more information about the competition, visit semaignited.com.
