The Carlisle 2021 thread

Hello from road robert driving from Massachusetts! I will be making the 389 mile road trip (avoid highways) for the first time this year with my buddy (Johnny Lightning) riding shotgun, '71 road runner all stock no A/C, manual steering, 383 4spd w/ 3:91s and F-70 14 Good Year Polyglas wide treads!
Can my friend and I swing by the tent on Sat for 2 burgers and 2 dogs? (He's a '71 Chevelle SS 454 4 spd guy but loves Mopars too!)
1. I do not see a 2021 schedule on the Dragway website, please let us know what you find out... I saw on this thread that some guys head out the the dirt oval track nearby to see stock car racing Sat night, sounds fun.
2. I want to do the autocross, will they let you drive the course with just a lap seat belt? I am trying to find a Snell rated helmet but not easy last minute...

Drive safe and we'll see you Saturday (and maybe at other meet and greets at the tent)! Got you covered for the burgers and dogs!

You have Williams Grove Speedway right down the street from Carlisle fairgrounds Friday night dirt oval track racing and Port Royal Sat night dirt track racing. They dont let you take your own personal car out on the track though. U can ask management though since you will have nice car. Maybe they will let you but insurance reasons will kill it probably. He is Williams grove schedule and South mountain dragstrip racing for Friday.

Also if you are retired veteran military or active duty or Guard. You get $5.00 off your entrance fee. Carlilse just started this at the Ford show this year I went to, you dont have to show them your ID but I would take it just in case or something with your DD 214 paper work a copy of it if you dont have a Id or copy of discharge certificate or even some type of e-mail with your name on it from military just in case.

road robert, With your question I think maybe you want to run the Carlisle Autocross Course with your car. If this is correct, maybe someone here can advise or you call Carlisle To confirm only the use of a lap belt as ok. Also your Street Insurance may be Voided if involved in ''Racing Action''.

Safe travels Rich, see you this coming weekend !
 
I do not know how that RED X got there in the above post, but it was not meant to be. That was a shocker, I looked to see who done it:eek:, it was me! UNDO,UNDO, UNDO.
Everybody have a Safe Trip and lots of excitement.
:eek::(
 
Sorry guys. Won't be able to go this year with the pro street challenger. Speedway Motors screwed me and cancelled my 3+ month backorder on seats that were finally shipped and supposed to arrive 3 days ago.

I will be there on Saturday to buy some parts at the swap meet, but once again won't be able to show the Chally.

Next year!!!
 
A few years ago I camped out the night before to get in line for the prestigious autograph. Oh what an honor it was! :lowdown:

OH LORD HAVE MERCY ON US THIS WEEKEND!! @hsorman !!! GONNA NEED A LIFT OFF ROOF ON THE TENT TO FIT @Richard Cranium EGO no thanks to @khryslerkid !!!:rofl: RC is NOT to have ANY writing devices ON HIM or NEAR him upon entering the FBBO tent!! :D
 
QuickBpBp, What are your swap meet space numbers? I want to stop by
and check out your merchandise. @Dodge33
Sorry just saw this M162-165... You need to put @ in front of the members name to get thier attention..
 
First time in awhile that I heard there is officially NO SPACES for rent.. Completely sold out. Hoping for a great show I decided with loading in the heat I am not taking any sheet metal or bumpers or rims.. Too much work after working the last few days all day in the heat..

I heard the vendor overflow is in part of the car corral. Record turnout for sure.
 
Did we have enough registered to pay for the tent?

I called once and didn't get through to Ed. I simply haven't had time to call back, and I have the feeling all the Carlisle folks are quite busy now.

Long winded way to say I don't know. If I get the chance, maybe I'll try today if I have some time.
 
Just about ready to leave here for the long ride (32 miles) See you there I am married to my booth O-190, stop bye!
