Default Corvette Carlisle

Who is driving their Corvette the greatest distance to attend this event? I have a short drive of 75 miles. Who will have the furthest trip to Carlisle? How many States will be represented over the three days?

I understand some folks from Australia are coming into the US on the Left coast and plan to be in Carlisle (for the walkabout) in leased or rented Vettes! I'm not sure from where they're getting the cars, but I'd give them "long distance" anyway.

Default Looks like there is going to be plenty of parking!

From the look of things, if nobody is going, prices on everything should be dirty cheap! I'am always up for a bargain. Someone on here said they could not reserve a hotel room! Maybe only the locals go to Corvette Carlisle.

Unfortunately, Grond will be a "no show". I haven't worked on it since April (except for a few major projects that I post when I have the time )

You know that Fall is right around the corner and some of us low life's (aka me) are counting on you to restart the Grond Chronicles so we don't have to get cable TV which, as we all know, cuts into our mod funds.

Oh, from Virginia Beach to Carlisle is about 320 miles
