Anyone at spring Carlisle? I am headed that way hoping to find an interesting car and wondering how well attended it is this year. I go to the Corvette event every year and have been to fall Carlisle but never spring. Any pics would be appreciated.

All depends on weather. The last few years the weather sucked. But for the most part it's always crowded

Car Corral is very large; lots of cars. Lots of people. Lots of motorized vehicles to watch out for. I exited 81 about 715am yesterday (Thur) and 11 was crawling. I drove past gate 1 and parked in the back yard of a house near gate 2. Bottom line; I had a great day.

I spent most of today (Friday). I walked for miles but didn't even come close to seeing half of the event. I took a lot of pictures of the C3s for sale, I'll post some pictures later this weekend...
