Bought my 79 there 5 years ago, hoping this'll be the first year that I can make it there in my Corvette

As long as those pesky trailing arms come out....

.... 2006 was my last year. After 17yrs of going, I had enough. Too many changes year to year.

...been going to Corvettes @ Carlisle since '87. Will always go there, even if for one day. Usually make it three days though.

We quit going to BG 3years ago and haven't made Carlisle yet. But those of you that haven't been to MidAmerica FunFest need to check it out last year it was getting more and more like the old BG fairgrounds and you can't beat the price wro87

Comparing that Funfest thing to B/G is kinda funny, actually. I mean, it's a free walkaround for about 2 hours but comparing it to B/G?

I've gone every year since 1980 and will be there again this year. I'll be driving the '58 up there as it is the 50th anniversary car this year.
