Default Fall Carlisle..anyone ever go?

I'm thinking about going to Carlisle this week end. Anyone ever go to the fall show? Any Vettes or parts there? :confused: Thanks

I am thinking of going also. I went to one of the big shows once.... can't recall if it was Spring or Fall, but there were quite a few vettes there. Not sure about the vendors. I was vetteless and looking at the time. MJ

There is a good amount of vettes and vendors selling parts. The only problem is they are scattered over the grounds.

The spring and fall shows are the biggest, covering all makes/models, etc. Yes there will be alot of "vette" vendors there, but only the ones more established, so don't go looking for the same amount of "vette" specific vendors that would appear at the Corvette Show.

Yes, there will be Corvettes in the car carrol but there again, mixed with a wide variety of other vehicles.

I'm going Friday, that way we'll miss the weekend crowd, I enjoy it - if anything, just to get a "Big Smokie" :D

"Big Smokie"... those are pretty good, but I always liked "Debbie's Sticky Buns"... :lol:

For me it's the Hershey's Raspberry Blast ice cream. Just like the generally available Raspberry, with big chunks of milk chocolate added for good measure. And then hit Massey's Frozen Custard on the way out of town for a large malted milk shake. Carlisle is good for ice cream lovers.

Hmmmm... walk around Fall Carlisle this weekend, or wrench on my still uncompleted Shark? Decisions, decisions.

Probably a bit worse, thing is ya see alot more people at camp grounds, etc.. If you hunt around the area, I'm sure you could find places. Probably on the otherside of harrisburg, but it's still within a 1/2 hour drive to the fairgrounds.
