Default Carlisle spot

I'm not using my Corvettes at Carlisle spot this year. It's close to the east gate (street access and cheap/great hot dogs ) First guy with the $100 it cost me gets it. Comes with a car pass and two gate passes for every day, too. I had posted this earlier, but the tickets finally came in. Use it to sell or just as a base of operation. pleare PM me if interested

It may seem that way ... BUT I've been to all of the C@C events except 2 in the last 25 years and remember everyone complaining about all the C4 stuff and the guys with non chrome bumper corvettes being shunned by the "real" Corvette owners...

What goes around comes around..

It generally follows the money. Very few people outside forums spend the big bucks on C4s. C6 owners spend BIG bucks on their toys, as do, to a lessor extent, C5 owners. All vettes are welcome and represented there, and you just need to look harder for some things. It's kind of strange though that every year a lot of people bring the same parts. Some years there will be 30 or 40 C4 front clips, some years 2 or 3. One of the reasons for lack of C4 parts there is a general lack of demand for them. I've brought C4 parts there and have had very few people look at them or ask for them, less every year. Very few people are building or restoring them. This show is like all the other vette shows wrapped into one, only bigger.
