Default Carlisle - Spring vs. Fall

I'm not looking for a lot of detail, but are there many differences between the Spring (April) and Fall (August) events at Carlisle?

August is the one to go to, hands down.

If you don't mean just about Corvette cars and parts (as RRV noted), I think Spring is a little better than Fall. I think Spring seems to be busier than Fall because people have lists of things they've discovered they need during the Winter.

If you mean Spring (April) and Fall (October) it is Spring hands down. I actually got many parts for my 76 at Spring Carlisle. Fall was a dud.

But if you mean Spring (April) and Corvettes @ Carlisle (August) the it is Corvettes @ Carlisle hands down. Many more Corvette specific parts & cars!

I've only been to Carlisle once ... August, 2007. I had a great time and found and bought just about every item on my 4 page (small print) list. I spent 2 long days there, but didn't do much besides shop for parts. I have a much smaller list again now, and can go to either Spring or Fall events ... just wondering what the differences are, aside from all vettes in the Fall versus many makes and models in the Spring.
