I'll start the official Carlisle thread
- Thread starter 300rag
- Start date
She's really not fussy.... and except for one breakfast place under the grandstand that shall not be named, she likes the food at Carlisle. But... after putting up with me doing Carlisle stuff all day, taking her out for a nice dinner makes her happy. She likes the Appalachian Brewing Company and Leeds.

No idea Jer, my wife won't let me go over there anymore! j/k
Well, since my girlfriend is going to Carlisle this year...I changed hotels so she'll have a great time and might want to go again.
Since she has agreed to go to the show AND the ProMod race I made reservations at the Hilton in Harrisburg to make her car weekend a little more pleasant. I've been messing with her telling her we'll have to take guns with us to keep the crack heads and hookers away from the NYB. We are taking vacation the week following the show. Haven't decided which direction we'll go after the show. She wants to go to Wisconsin.

I frequently do vacation after the show....you need one.. cant wait to meet Mrs NYB
I agree taking vacation after Carlisle. I think going to Wisconsin will be the best bet.....a lot cooler. I plan on driving the NYB to Wisconsin again.

A Rambler is the way to go to Wisconsin, actually. 
The AMC plants in Milwaukee and Kenosha have been torn down years ago....

Damn shame.........I was there in 2004 for the AMC 50th anniv show on the lake, blocks and blocks of factory buildings were still there, a few still being used. Now everyone works in the damn service industry and you can't run a household on such a salary.
I still can't believe that both plants were saved as historic sites and/or re-purposed. IIRC, the Kenosha plant was torn down for parking space.

The Packard plant in Detroit was declared a national historic site back in the 80's ...... Go look at it now...!

It's Not Going to Shift Itself
:tantrum::tantrum: Looks like I won't get to meet you guys until 2015. Circumstances have caused me to cancel for this year. Some lucky guy on the waiting list for the Holiday Inn is going to be real happy.

I'll be there Thursday through Sunday. I hope I get a chance to meet some of you. Is there a tent or designated meeting place for FCBO like some other boards have?

No, there really isn't an official tent. Since 2011 I have volunteered my tent as the unofficial meeting place...........Water, Gatorade, soda pop and snacks abound, plus lots of shade.
