Bob / Dave Thank You ...... Let's make this happen ......Make your Hotel reservations this week !

Planning on being there as well - looking forward to it.

I need to sign up for everything

I keep getting emails from Carlisle Events about "our" weekend. HURRY, if you buy your "Gate-and-Go" pass  by March 29 you'll save 10%.

Which is, like, $4. I'll save the $4 by not going to Starbucks once, thank you(I NEVER go there).

Just 10?!  C'mon folks, it's time to celebrate the backside of the pandemic and join us for jocularity, merriment, and frivolity.  Oh, and cars, too.  Almost forgot about the cars.

Alan/Lane.  I'm working on getting a Canadian contingent to add to that total.

Yes, it's time to enjoy life a little more than over the past two years....

Carlisle: I know of at least 9 possibles that have verbally committed but are sitting on the fence, surely it can't be the cost of gas as that's easily remedied by switching to cheaper lunch choices............ Come on folks let's get it done this week !

.........GREAT NEWS BOB & THANKS !

Cory and Jeni will be there, and Paul Mossberg.

Bill Ascheman and Dale Schumacher assure me they're in.

I signed up today for the gate and go pass, I signed up as if I were driving my speedster if a drive my VW will that be any problem, can I take that car in. Looking forward to my first Carlisle car show.

Thanks,

Mike

No problem.  I signed up for my Coupe once or twice and drove the BMW as the Coupe wasn't finished.

I've driven my Explorer on the show field twice. Ford imports parts from Mexico, so it counts

I drove my Ford F250 and trailer on the show field several years in a row.  They really don't care all that much once you've paid for a show field pass.

BTW:  Those show field passes are a real bear to remove (the adhesive is wicked sticky) so I would scotch tape mine to the windshield.  I don't think they really like that, but no one ever told me to do otherwise.

Brake cleaner removes ALL adhesives. Just don't spray it on anything you care about: paint and plastic in particular.

Razor scrape the sticker off first.

Then spray a little brake cleaner on a paper towel. It's the best cleanup for ANY windshield sticker.

I always just pull a tiny bit of the backing and only stick a little bit. Much easier to get off

Good news...the Carlisle list is growing !

Canadians! Sign up as of tomorrow. Seriously, this is not an April Fool's Joke.

If you are vaccinated you can get back home without a test starting tomorrow.

Bieber U reading this...no excuses for not leaving

Carlisle 2022 will soon be here! Our room reservation list is growing but what about you the Carlisle Alumni ? Sure would like to see you all !

What's the worst case scenario here , Alan?

Maybe have to go to a bar for the raffle and not have a breakfast and some cookies?

Don't read any tone, I am genuinely curious.

I've been needling Carey (@chines1) and Mike for a while.  Hopefully my nagging will pay off.

I think some are still Covid hesitant and gas prices don't help either. I think we'll see ppl doing their reservations in the next week or so.

Do you really think that will "help"?

If they show up I'll take credit for it, so yeah. 

Bribe them.
