Roll call: If you are going to the Chrysler Nationals @ Carlisle please post here.

Was it in an email? Or is there a section in the website to make those comments.

I agree that the ALL the Full Size Cars should be together. And have enough room for all of us. Make the allocated space for the Fiats smaller.....

Since they took down the listing for last weekend, you have to go to the 2019 listing. I should have included a link.

Done. I asked Ed to respond back on his thoughts about all the Full Size cars together and enough space. We'll see what he has to say.

We're gonna change hotels next year. The Comfort Inn in Mechanicsburg was fine, but it's been taken over by a small Mopar club on Friday and Saturday. They tend to be rude and loud and after a second year of them, I've had enough.

I suggest the Marriot Town Suites in Mechanicsburg, PA its off Wesley drive. I have stayed there many times. Very clean and only 2 to 3 years old. Modern. Restaurants right outside the door or you have your own kitchen/refrigerator inside your room which saves you money on food and going out. Check out their website. If you are a veteran or civil service you can get the Govt rate. Book only thru the phone only if you are using these discounts. If you walk into the lobby they will not honor it for you. Also, VFW, etc.. discounts may qualify if not veteran. Always ask while booking.

I agree with Wizard. TownPlace Suites in Mechanicsburg worked out very well for me. I have a restrictive diet so having the option of preparing my own meals was very helpful. Also free hot breakfast and easy access to/from the turnpike.

They also have AAA discounts and if you're a Marriott rewards member you have the option to cancel the room up to 7 days prior to check-in, just in case.

TownePlace Suites Harrisburg West/Mechanicsburg

FYI, Rossmoyne road is Wesley Road West of 15.

I didn't get to see you, did you make it this year?

 

[polara71]

I had to go to Mechanicsburgh to pick up the trailer Saturday. Too damn far and too much congestion.

Uhaul is

It was great seeing you and the family again... and seeing that the sarcasm gene passes along even more effectively than the Polara gene . Will and I were coming to see you off... but I got distracted with the Gesswien car and owner... IDK if you were gone already, or I slowed us down too much... early departures suck. Hopefully you plan next year so it's more relaxing.

 

[polara71]

.... Too rushed this year. Next year should be hopefully back to Wednesday night to Sunday.

When we got back my party was packing up, I was bummed . I planned on staying until 7, gone before 6. ... The trailer endeavor took almost two hours.

Good, I know you missed the additional time and were beat down by the "vacation"

2 hours... ... I hope you had fun beating a discount out of the minimum wage help...

If you take the turn near the Army barracks and turn on to Rt 641, it's actually a nice drive out in the country for the most part.

That really sounds good. We stayed in a TownePlace Suites last month in Scranton and it worked out very well for us.

Wizard, it was good to finally meet you... you had a great collection of PA sheet metal with you... just inside gate 1... I'll find you faster next year.

Sorry the heat got to me this year so I wasn’t moving or thinking too well and I once again realized I missed the picture about a half hour too late.

It was great to hang out with you guys this year, sorry I missed the departure, but I had a hood to get rid of, so had to scoot. I wish I could spend a few more days at the show. Two hours to get the trailer? I hope it worked out, very frustrating to to get screwed by U Haul, I went through a similar thing back in 2016.

Sorry you had a rough time. As usual, I was trotting around all weekend, but I was a little slower than prior years. If my brain worked, I have your number and could have reached out.

Pleasure meeting you as well. Had some fun chatting with you and glad you had fun at the show.
