Carlisle All Ford Nationals June 6-8, 2008
So, we had such a success last year that I can't believe we haven't been talking about this year!
I propose the same thing as last year with a tent.
What does everyone think? Should we do it again?

Are you thinking of using the club name again this year? It would be nice if we can all be in the same area again.
I have not signed up for the show yet. Will do that in the next few weeks.
I just checked the rate for the Residence Inn and it came back at $269/night. Sounds like you are doing all right with your points.
Welcome! I do hope you decide to bring your feature car to Carlisle. The more the merrier!
Very nice. Can I add you to my list of anticipated attendees ?
That's too bad and I understand your concern about driving with a transmission problem.

I will be there first thing on Friday.
There is still plenty of opportunity for others to join us. I told them 15 cars but I think we will be below 10. I'm hoping for some last minute additions. So, come on and join us!
Last year I had pretty good success at flagging down people who did not know about us and getting them to join us. I'll have to be doing that again.
And, if you can't bring your car but can still bring yourself make sure to stop by and say hi.
Yeah, it was nice to meet you too!
I just posted a write-up on the show here .
Next step: Get a TWF tshirt! [B-)]
Also thank-you for arranging the Tent again this year. With the heat wave I know I parked myself under it a few times to cool down. It is also nice to have a place that we can call our own. Not many clubs went the extra mile to order a tent.
MANY THANKS!!!! [=D>] [=D>] [=D>] [=D>] [=D>]
Should we petition for a "feature car" class for 2009? Heck, they added a class for 2001 & 2008 Bullitt Mustangs. On Saturday we had 8 cars plus there were 3-4 other feature cars/7-up cars around. That should have given us at least as many cars as the Bullitt class had although I didn't count them.
This might be a good time to do so since they have a post event survey online. I haven't filled it out but there must be a general comments field in there somewhere. Apparently, anyone can fill it out.
I'm sure there will be some resistance to add yet another Mustang class but it can't hurt to ask. What do you think?
Also last year they had us in their program with a little write up so that should help our case.
I actually just reserved a room at the Fairfield Inn in Carlisle tonight by using my Marriott points. They only wanted 15K points for 2 nights which is their entry points level which is great. Room rates were around $159.
How many cars can we get their this year? It was mentioned creating a feature class, let's look into it. Hopefully we can get alot of us there this year, it really is a great time looking at other features and talking about them all weekend.

I forgot about the feature car class. It would have been a good off-season discussion to have with them. I hope its not too late to introduce that topic. I just replied to the club contact to ask if she could point me in the right direction for getting consideration for a new class. I'll keep you informed on how that goes.
