Carlisle 2022 Tent Poll

[Don Frelier]

I received my registration in the mail today, a little later because I am in Canada. I foresee a problem. My parking spot is in R125 which appears to be right across the road from the FBBO tent. I think I will have to stock up on more beer.

We will be bringing a good amount. But drink responsibly my friend.

Just being neighbourly. I figured we may have a lot of visitors.

FxBO Picnic Details​

Folks, sorry for the late posting, but my trip across the country has delayed some of my efforts.

Last year, I held a picnic and requested that people "reserve" their food. I sponsored the cost, but other folks brought some stuff as well. I think the event turned out well.

I will again hold a picnic lunch on Saturday, 16 July at the FBBO tent. Time will be noon until about 1. I will sponsor some burgers, dogs, etc., but rather than reserving food it will be first come, first served until we either run out of food or run out of hungry members! This picnic will also be open to our FABO, FCBO and FEBO friends as well.
Come meet and greet some of the great members on the forum!

I am also working on having a cooler at the tent for free water (maybe other beverages as well) that you can grab at any time Thursday - Saturday. More details on this coming up in future posts as I work on Carlisle planning.

Finally, if you are willing to help in any way, please send me a PM here so I can coordinate activities and what we will have.

Thanks,

Hawk

Any pics of the FBBO gang from recent years past? It'll give me a heads up on who's who!

There are some pictures earlier in this thread, as well as pictures from last year's Carlisle thread here towards the end: https://www.forbbodiesonly.com/mopa...isle-2021-thread.214102/page-7#post-911891851

Do you think the other group will be pissed?

Hey Hawk,

I'll be bringing a butt load of pulled pork and requisite accessories for Saturday.

 

[Beep!Beep!]

I will be at ca 216 - ca 218 i will have 67 satellite and belvedere, parts and some 65 belvedere stuff, wondering if anyone would be interested in the 65 hardtop roof, if so I would bring it, haven't removed it, or the front and rear glass,just would rather leave it as is ,if no interest easier to keep safe.I also will be bringing my 69 fastback barracuda 318 to hopefully find it a home. This will aid in the rest of my 70 rr build. See you there!

This year's crew is shaping to be as homely as last years crew.

You can park your trailer outside the gates on a local street right out from the fairgrounds. Also your car also on the streets. No charge. Get there early though as everyone else has the same idea. Farther you have to walk to the gate then. Put a lock on everything when you leave your car out there and trailer. Also, trailer parking outside Gate 1 where the old factory used to be. Lots of locals in area have parking also for cars and trailers they usually charge $10 to $20 a day to park.

Will the Kanooks be allowed to come into the country this year?? Last year border was shut down to them and no Canadians could come to the event. Would have been over 3,000 cars last year as it was pure pandamonium crowd wise like I've never seen before. It was great!! I have been doing this show (vending) for just about 20 years now and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Also, don't forget there will be DRAG RACING FRIDAY NIGHT at South Mountain Dragway (1/8 mile track) They are also having a cruise in at the track this year. Not sure what that all entails with the cruise in there but that's new this year. They have been having drags there for the MOPARs for 20 plus years there every year this event is held in July at Carlisle. Awesome time there on Friday only. Visit their website at Southmountainraceway.com Location is: South Mountain Raceway. 1107 Petersburg Road. Boiling Springs, PA 17007 Phone is: 717-323-0210 They are also on FB. Location is about 10 miles or less from the Carlisle Fairgrounds. Back in the day Carlisle used to run a free shuttle bus to the track back and forth for spectators. They stopped doing that years ago though. See you all there!

We made it down yesterday and headed over to the fairgrounds to check it out. I met Richard and picked up my trunk carpet. Thanks again Richard. Leaving soon to get set up for the day.

Looking forward to stopping by the tent at some point. Looks like a good setup. Will there be some sort of donation jar (tip jar, whatever) to thank the organizers for their efforts? This will be my first time at this event, so I'm looking forward to the overload of too much awesome stuff!
