RE. Carlisle, if you could have bought any car there what would you have gone home with?
For me it would have been
1) Rich's '58
2) the Motion GT in the Saloon, I really like the old couple that own it, I have talked to them for the last 2 years.
3) The blue 2002 Z06 if the poster girl came with it :D

Ah, yes, the Kerbeck poster girls (in my best W. C. Fields imitation :hat ). :jester
Their career is nearly as short as that of a wide receiver that drops passes. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:
Actually, 96 wasn't the last time I went to Carlisle, but it was the last time I went WID' DA BOYZ. The next time I went to Carlisle, my wife went with me. She said she wanted to see Gettysburg. I have been known to talk in my sleep, but she has never mentioned anything specific about Carlisle. :D :D

One of those loudly painted C5 Pace cars - with the purple and yellow and the wild flag graphics down the side. I just LOVE the looks of them! :jester Every time I say I love that paint scheme my husband accuses me of going through a mid-life crisis... at 36! :lol:

Sure, go ahead, razz me all you want. It still like them!!! And you certainly don't see them on the road for every day cars.... Hmmmm, must be because they attract every donut loving cop withint a 10 mile radius. :jester Anyone know how many were made with that paint scheme? My black book only goes through the C4s. ;) Maybe it's time to get a new one. ~Juliet :seeya

Re: Carlisle, if you could have bought any car there..? (Juliet)
We wouldn't razz ya if we didn't like ya! :D :D
I must say this...when they were teenagers, one of my boys had a pair of "Vans" sneakers that looked just like those pace cars...well, not exactly like the pace car, but close enough. :D :D :D
You know why they attract cops? Because it screams "I AM SPECIAL AND I HAVE AN ATTITUDE PROBLEM". Cops (especially those Corvette deprived) would love for some rich, smart aleck Corvette owner to mouth off so he could make him/her assume the position, cuff them, and take them "downtown". Better still if they can add insult to injury by impounding the car and have it towed. :D
You know I am only kidding you, Juliet. :D You just made such a tempting target of opportunity. :jester

Hey Juliet,
Every now and then you could see Roy Jones jr.:boxing sporting around town in his. Isn't that the Indy Pace car version?

Rich's C1 is a '62 (not '58). I, too, like his '67 better however.
Maybe I'm just partial!

Re: (67HEAVEN)
Well, gee, 67 Heaven, your vanity plate is interesting, but I always thought those were special plates just for RV's. :D
Seriously now, I was only kiddin ya, but we do see a lot of Ontario plates out here in the West...all on motor homes! Ontarians must be the only Canajuns affluent enough to afford the finer things of life. :D :D

Re: (67HEAVEN)
Yeah, but shoot, yawl Canajuns got nearly as much of the land mass as we did, but you only got, what, five "states" where we subdivided ours into 48 states.
Besides, the feds took New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, and parts of states all the way up to Idaho away from us after the Mexican War, and made them into separate states. It wuz a land grab; you see, the BLM owns a lot of those states, but the only fed land in Texas had to be bought from individuals with tax dollars. :D :D

Howdy there Chuck, pardner!
<<Yeah, but shoot, yawl Canajuns got nearly as much of the land mass as we did, but you only got, what, five "states" where we subdivided ours into 48 states.>>
Nearly as much land mass? Canada's land mass is 9.97 million sq. km., making it the second-largest country in the world after Russia. From east to west, Canada encompasses six time zones. The USA's land mass? 9.4 million sq. km., representing fourth in the world after Russia, Canada and China. NOTE: (for help in coverting sq.km. to sq.miles visit http://www.sciencemadesimple.net/EASYarea.html )
Five states? Nope, no states at all...there are ten Provinces and three Territories.
Subdivided into 48 states? Nope....50 plus D.C.
No matter, come on up anyway.....August/September is great snowshoe weather and there's always room in the igloo!
