Default [NoVa/MD/DC/WV]Caravan to Corvettes @ Carlisle - Sat. 8/28/10

I've had some inquiries already, so here goes...

I will be going up to Corvettes @ Carlisle one day only (Saturday, August 28th) and hopefully leading a caravan of fine 'vettes with me. This is open to any and all Corvettes - non-Corvettes may ride tailgunner.

We will meet in the Leesburg Premium Outlets parking lot (in the middle where the food court is, parking area #10, faces Route 15 Bypass) and take Route 15 through Maryland into Pennsylvania for a nice scenic drive. Drivers' meeting at 7:15 AM, leaving at 7:30 AM SHARP. PLEASE remember to bring your 2-way radios, and hit rest rooms/gas up your cars BEFORE you arrive at the meeting spot! In other words, be ready to roll, there are NO rest stops, it is only about a 1.5 hour trip! Once we arrive you are on your own to enjoy the many wonders of Corvettes at Carlisle.

If you wish to join this caravan to Carlisle, please email me at lilredcorvette94@yahoo.com OR post here. You MUST pay a registration fee at the gate if you have not pre-registered online. Visit www.carlisleevents.com to read more details about the event. Bring lotsa money (and sunblock and good walking shoes)!

Directions to Leesburg Premium Outlets (caravan start point): Take VA-267 West (Dulles Greenway) to exit 1B. Merge onto US Route 15 Bypass North, right onto Fort Evans Road. Address is 241 Fort Evans Road NE, Leesburg, VA 20176.

Directions to Carlisle will be handed out at the drivers' meeting.

If you are leading a caravan to this event, please be considerate enough to start your OWN thread and NOT post in this one.

We've had people come up without being in their vettes before. There is parking close to the gates, down the street in some lots. Some homeowners who live close to the gates even open up parking in their driveways and yards.

No reason to feel like an outcast...plenty of friends have gone up in their 'other' cars cuz they wanted to buy sheit and haul it back (the loot wouldn't all fit in the vette)

No worries...he seems to like to be right behind me (he's direction-challenged) although he does better toward the back (forces him to stay up with the group)...

Good time

Thanks for letting me tag along!

PS- In spite of what Anthony thinks, I like that Carbon Vette! I could see me in that
