Speedsters meet Spyders at Carlisle

147 here. Looks like I am in the lead.

131

Dang! I can't find out mine until I get home.

I don't need no stinking pass...

Mine's 132.

Mine's 0.

There there, Rich. You can come next year.

...pass this Vinny !

Old No. 7, like Jack Daniels. I pulled the trigger early.

Hoss, they pills for that:-)

I rang in at 75.

Gordon,

I'll bring my projector for your backup... Casio LED should work just fine with whatever you have.

Mine is 35

34

Thanks, Clint.....Much appreciated.

Carlisle 93 for me!

Hoss! I used to work with an Engineer named Jack Daniels. His boat was..."Old No. 7"

Clint,

Fantastic! Thanks for offering to bring your projector. Every year we go hunting for one and this is very helpful. Renting is not only very expensive but also a pain to go through the pick-up and return dance when everyone just wants to play. We'll take good care of it.

Gordon,

We have a screen and a PA system.

WIN AN iPAD

Carlisle Events recognizes the need that today

797 My registration number... That is the highest I have seen in a while. But I haven't been in a few years.

iPad, SchmyPad...order your t-shirts and sweatshirts this weekend!!!!!!

Just received from Carlisle (note: we will have a 20x30 tent):

In an effort to grow the Swap Meet portion of the Import & Kit Nationals I am offering FREE vending spaces to all clubs that participate in the Club Tent Program. What does that mean? It

Heads-up everyone!
The deadline for getting your reservation submitted to me for the Saturday evening gala awards dinner is rapidly approaching. Your check or money order must be to me no later than this Friday, May 4.

Details can be found at the top of this thread.
The best price, good food, new venue, great facilities and a fun evening....don't miss out.
And don't forget to wear your Hawaiian short

I heard Vince wants to set up a kissing booth.

Kissing Booth, what a great idea....I'll bring my buddy BUBBA, he really licks, I mean likes to KISS

Geez........ Now what are we gonna do with all these Hawaiian shirts??

And remember - you can wear your Hawaiian shirts whenever during the weekend - They're not just for dinner time, anymore.......

I can see why Carlisle is trying to expand the swap meet area - it's been getting a little smaller each year. Hopefully, this might get a little more interest going.

Don't forget, folks...The swap-meet/vendor area is a great place to stock up on valve cover gaskets and oil change gasket sets for the year ahead! Along with some interesting hard-to-find tools and general VW parts. We don't see a lot of Speedster-specific parts, but the VW folks usually show up.

Dang. I thought I would make a trip to actually introduce myself in person, instead of just lurking around on the Forums!! Unfortunately, I have out of town business that popped up and I won't be home to Detroit until Saturday the 19th.

I have my pre-registration Pass and Everything!! #725

Have fun everyone!

Cheers, Craig

Hey Craig. You're not too far from me. I've wanting to organize a BBQ/Group Speedster Cruise for the Telegraph Cruise. Maybe this summer. Saturday, July 21st.

I'd be glad to lay a big kiss on all the right coast folks at the kissing booth! Pucker up, fellas.

Tom,

Absolutely! Keep me in the loop.

Just received from Carlisle:

LIVE BANDS - Enjoy a Variety of Live Music

Music always adds to an event. At the Import & Kit Nationals it creates an ambiance that just seems to bring all of the great cars and motorcycles to life. A variety of bands will play on the The River 97.3 Stage facing the showfield to create a festival atmosphere.

The weekend lineup is as follows:
FRIDAY
12 p.m. - 2 p.m....Mitch Gregory Blues Review
2 p.m - 4 p.m....Fretworks

SATURDAY
9 a.m. - 11 a.m....The Jazz Me Band
11 a.m. - 3 p.m....Payton Taylor & Band (Nashville country music sensation)
3 p.m. - 5 p.m....The Funktion Band

SUNDAY
10 a.m. - 11 a.m....Payton Taylor & Band
11 a.m. - 12 p.m....No Last Call Band (strolling the grounds)
12 p.m. - 1 p.m....The Jazz Me Band

Country from 11 to 3:00 on SATURDAY? Really?
Who do they think we are?
Blech. I'll be tuning engines during that period, or vomiting on the stage.

I think you'll be able to stomach her show, Cory.

Oh, and she's a drummer, too.

I'll be in the front row!
