Leadfoot Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I normally go out on Friday (a little less crowded but not as many show cars) to pick up parts for my other cars. I might go back on Saturday this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadfoot Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Anyone else going? It the largest Ford (Lincoln/Mercury) show in the country! The close hotels sellout a year in advance, but there are still some within a half hour drive. Here's a link that has FAQs. it's from a Merkur site but applies to everyone. http://www.merkurclub.com/carlisle2013/info_pages/faq.htm I normally park right outside the gates for 5-10 dollars. There is parking on the streets but they fill up fast and you have to walk a distance if you get there late. Since I am normally buying parts I want to park close, so I don't have to lug it all the way back to the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoolinX2 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 I may ride up on Saturday just to browse around. I always just pay the show fee so I can park on the show field. It's worth it to me to not have to walk all the way in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firstcontact1977 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Definitely plan to go. I already have my Showfield confirmation. I will be on the field for all three days. It would be great if we could have a good turn out for the SHOs. See you there....

Firstcontact1977 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Forgot to mention the first picture from my profile photo album was taken at Carlisle last year... Definitely plan to go.

markssho Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Hey all - It would be pretty cool if we could all meet up...I can do Friday or Saturday! Maybe we need a club tent? Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Hey all - It would be pretty cool if we could all meet up...I can do Friday or Saturday!Maybe we need a club tent? Mark That's just what I was thinking, if we had a club area, it would be good to have a banner, but if we had a club area, I think I could probably make it, at least for one day.

mjhpadi Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Just contacted Carlisle about the Ford Nationals and they will be sending a club planning kit. Since I only live about an hour from Carlisle, I'm hoping I will have all the info before the week-end. I will update once I receive the info, concerning prices and other info. This could be a great week-end in early June and chance to meet other members. I did find out that if we want a tent, they have them available for rental. I believe I have a sunroom available and if this comes together, we should be able to come up with enough cover to keep people out of the sun, but I don't think we really need a tent.

SpoolinX2 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 If we're gonna try to do a mini-meet out of this, I'm going to go ahead and plan to go on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpoolinX2 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 I just mean I'm going to make time in my schedule. From what I remember from past trips to Carlisle, I thought you had to have at least 25 people registered under one club name to get any sort of 'benefit' on the show field...

mjhpadi Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Yeah, I can't remember the rules when I went with Ford Truck World and I searched all over the Carlisle website and couldn't find the rules....that's why I requested a club kit, hopefully that will tell me what needs to be done to get a club space.

bamsho Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 There has been in the past yrs at Carlisle a club tent. Usually around $125.00. If we get more than 20-25 cars preregistered there is no cost for the tent. We have pitched in money for the tent if not enough SHO's show up. Usually Terri H form SHOforum gets the tent, but not sure about this yr. The last couple of years the SHO's have dwindled down, and last year they split up the SHO classes, not sure why on that. Its always a good time, Im hoping to be there but depends on work and if my G3 is back running. Would be nice to put a face to names from the forum here.

bamsho Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Did you get the club pack from Carlisle yet, just curious what's all in it and if there are 2 SHO classes this year again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 No, I got the e-mail from them saying they were mailing it, and I only live an hour and 1/2 away from Carlisle, I'm really puzzled as to why I haven't gotten it yet...but I have not checked the mail today. Will let everyone know ASAP when I receive it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geswek Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 I, and three of my buddies are going Saturday. We live in West Chester and up for a mini-meet. I may have at least one other SHO coming and Leadfoot if he wants to meet up with me and my mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I still haven't heard from Carlisle about the club area....don't know if they have enough or what, they promised to get the info to me last week (and didn't). So sorry that I don't have any update info, but not because I haven't tried.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamsho Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Most of use have just been showing up. If you want judged I would say get there very early Sat., if not it takes you awhile to get in. Im just hoping the stock and modified class are next to each other. FYI the dyno is back this year, not sure if its setup for AWD cars. Mjhpadi what day are you planning on going, if all goes well for me, knock on wood, I'm planning on heading down Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
