Never to early to start thinking about Carlisle!

So the interest is building and a few of us are already thinking about Carlisle '08, where "Speedsters Meet Spyders at Carlisle".

Hotel accomodations are being worked out and a few of us are thinking about things we might do to capitalize on past year experiences AND provide the 4-day weekend of a lifetime.

This coming year, the featured car(s) will be the Austin Healey Sprite/MG Midget, and the National Organizer is hoping for 600 of those little cars to appear (they're even smaller than a Spyder, if you can believe it!)

We're also contemplating a number of different things to keep you all interested for the weekend. Things like tours of local points of interest, cruises, the ever-popular Go-Kart races, and, of course, our nightly cruises to dinner and, God knows, we may even build another car right at the show!!! (although I haven't yet recovered from the LAST build!!)

OK, so here's our first request:

If you received the Carlisle email notices and updates last year, AND you still have the same email address, then you'll get the notices THIS year, too, so sit tight and we'll get something out after the Holidays.

If you never got those notices last year (probably because you live in the Outback of North America or somewhere Overseas) AND you would like to be included on the email list in the off-chance that you might (I say, might) attend, PLEASE shoot me an email with the following info to gnichols0414-at-charter.net and I'll include you:

your name
Email address
Town/City and State/Province/Territory (and country)
Your car (or, if you don't yet have one, what you would LIKE to have)

That's about it, for now.

Expect us to beat the West Coast Bushes to see if we can get a few folks from "way out there" to make the trek "Back East" to join us this coming year. Why should Hoss Hallstrand and Steve O'Brien, those intrepid Subytubers, have all the fun, anyway? Maybe we can finally get Angela and Steve to come to the fun, and wouldn't it be Uber-Kool to see Vince show up with his Ghia?? How many others from the West Coast would like to head Back East before the weather turns hot and muggy??

Come join us! We promise you'll have the best weekend of the Summer!
