Carlisle 2015 Hotel Information !

I'm in! Thursday to Sunday!

 

Thanks Al!

Alan

 

Thanks once again for doing some of the legwork to make Carlisle a great event!

 

Thanks Alan. Made my reservation.  I'm going to do things differently this time. After last year's harrowing experience, I plan on making the trip in the comfort of my DD.

 

I will arrive on Thursday and depart on Saturday morning.  My favorite part of the trip is Thursday night and the activities on Friday.

 

I'm not buying a show field pass and am hoping that some of you will be willing to let me be a right seater during the stay.

Hi Alan .... made my reservation and am expecting to drive the speedster up from Ft Lauderdale.  Now that Nolan has fled north from Florida ..... maybe I'll get the distance prize

Alan..............Glenn and I will be there..reservation made!

 

Thanks again for making this a painless madness.

 

Paul

Reservations made for two.  Let's hope it doesn't rain this year.

 

Ok, I've registered the BMW with Carlisle Events - don't worry, I can still change my mind and bring the Speedster.

 

Now for the hotel...

Alan--thanks for getting that special rate at the Marriott!  I just made my hotel reservation and am looking forward to driving my Vintage Speedster the 1,145 miles from my door to the Mechanicsburg, PA Marriott.  This will be our 8th Carlisle in a row and each one is more fun than the last.  

 

Can't wait to see all my knucklehead friends.  

I'm also in.  No last minute scrambling for a place to sleep this year. No sir.

 

And Lane, what is this BS about the Bimmer?  This is the SPEEDSTER weekend, dumkopf.

 

Jack says he'll be coming in from 1145 miles out. Trahn from Florida says he may get the long distance award....ironically, he is 1144 miles out by Mapquest numbers and 1152 if he takes the long route. That's a close one.

 

We're again booked into room 121.  Coming from Ottawa, Canada...maybe the long way. Looking forward to seeing y'all !!

Thanks Al for arranging accommodations.I've made reservations for Barbara and myself for Thurs, Fri, and Sat. nights.This will be our 4th SOC @ Carlisle. We only have 200 miles to drive. The tub is now up on jack stands getting maintenance and upgrades. Looking forward to this event!

We're in for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We may be coming from Maryland area or heading there when we leave, so we may be Speedsterless. Either way, we plan on being there to see some old friends and meet some new ones.

Done!  Now I have to set up a room in Christiansburg for the trips up and back.

 

EDIT:  Okey dokey!!  We're done.  See y'all in May!  Any of y'all going via Christiansburg should act fairly quickly as they tend to run out of rooms.

Never too early to book your room......do it now !

Lane---Fairfield Inn, C-Burg, right?

Yup.  See you in May!

Tinks--see you there.  I don't want to see you in anything but your gorgeous Beck, either!

I am booked for Christiansburg coming and going, the Marriott in Mechanicsburg for the three nights and the Kit showfield for the weekend. Done and done!  I thank you Alan for your good work once again and also look forward to seeing the S/O knuckleheads once again in my 11th consecutive adventure.  I hope Lane will have a right seat open evenings in whatever he is driving since I hate driving at night, especially in the Red Man.  Also, I hope that I won't have a repeat of the Thursday debacle with the busted radiator hose near Staunton, VA. and all the excitement(?) that followed, especially the monsoon Leon and I drove through the last hour or so.  Fair winds and safe travels to all!

Roger that, Hoss. Keep the coolant in the radiator, and the tires dry.  No rain, is what I say. Is it time for Lane to start the no-rain dance??  Or a bit too early yet . . .

Yikes. I just called. Sold out. Are there any other hotels close to this one that you're aware of?

Annaliese just emailed me and said she's looking to share a room at Carlisle. Seems she's had a change of heart and wants another Speedster.

 

Any single lads have any ideas ?...she's looking for three nights.

WOW! Sold out already. YIKES!

Seriously?!  Didn't we have a similar problem last year where some rooms became available a bit later?  Either way, this is crazy.

Sold out! Really? How many rooms did we have for the group?

Jeff, did you notify them you were with the SOC?

 

I did say that I was with the Speedster Owners group just like the Dr said to do. There appear to be a Country Inn and Suites right next door which I'll try. 

I'd wait for Alan to chime in here. 

 

Hopefully, there is some mistake at the hotel.

Well, I booked here just in case. I can cancel up to 5/14.

 

Country Inn & Suites By Carlson, Harrisburg West (Camp Hill/Hershey), PA

4943 Gettysburg Road, Mechanicsburg, PA 17055 | (717) 796-0300

I just called and booked a reservation at the Courtyard by Marriott without any problems for the three nights. I should have asked how many rooms were available?!?,  but forgot to ask.

Rooms ARE available !

 

Jeff.... Do call them back be sure to state Speedster Owners block....

I just called, the girl on duty at the desk has minimal knowledge of what she is doing .......period.  

 

There are rooms available .  ~Alan

Hello......Just booked my room with the Marriott, easy peasy

 

Now to get a room in Christiansburg

All signed up - Thursday - Sunday 

I'm a half hour south of Carlisle so I don't need a room.   What is required as far as the show itself?   I plan to attend is there a sign up for the show grounds or other requirements?   

Contact Carlisle events and get s show field pass. http://www.carlisleevents.com/...mport-kit-nationals/

John,

 

We'll also have a sign-up sheet out soon for the other events of the weekend.  

Other events??  That would be like stuff like unsticking cars from mud, competitive eating contests and generalized misbehaving.  Right?  

Just booked a room for me and Carl Berry. See you in May.

That must be Rich on the right.....

Very good, Gordon, I'm the younger of the two of us.

 

LOL!  That's a good one!  I'm the one who looks like the Swedish chef, unfortunately not pictured.  Too busy making the squirrely stew.
