RGTorque Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Hello all, Years ago we had a great meet at Carlisle PA. does anyone have any interest in doing this again? It will only make sense if we get more than 5 drivers to come. I know locally we have many drivers but im hoping to attract more northern, western, and southern cars. i recall we have had more then 10 cars before. here is an old thread about the 2008 meet. http://usa7s.com/vb/showthread.php?t=2424 http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/869044876_2008-05-17-019.jpg
slngsht Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Interest, yes, car that can get me there, maybe :lol: Maybe after my move it'll be a priority again
DeanG Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 A meet could convince me to finally attend Carlisle.
S1Steve Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Hi Mazda, I would go back to Carlisle again. Last I was there was our last meet. Good luck with the move and getting you 7 together... Whats up with Franken7 ???
Taber10 Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 I've wanted to do Carlisle for years. I think next season is a long way off, but I'd be interested. Right now, my car also is not able to travel, but I'm optimistic that it will be on the road again sooner than later. Taber
a.moore Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 I've been meaning to make it to Carlisle for years. This would be reason enough to go.
DaveD Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 I've had my car there once. You can count me in to come to a sevens meet there.
Paul Hill Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 The kit car show is listed as May 16-18, 2014 on the Carlisle Event website. We try to make it down from eastern Ontario every few years. There is always some amazing craftsmanship exhibited, as well as some truly awful designs. The flea market usually has some neat stuff too if you have the time to peruse piles of junk to find that one nugget. And always some neat guys to chat with! Will hopefully have our new motorhome finished, not sure about the Caterham, though am hopeful...
MichaelD Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) I would likely drive up. I didn't see any Sevens there this year. Edited September 23, 2013 by MichaelD
RGTorque Posted September 23, 2013 Author Posted September 23, 2013 ok, so it sounds like there is a good amount of interest. now... how do we get the club behind this? personally i can drive my 7 up, but if i tow up i can bring 3 10x10 tents a few folding tables and maybe a grill. i think if we all pitch in it would be a hell of an event.
DeanG Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 If we get there with our 7 it will be with a trailer. There is no way I could bring myself to drive ours all that way. We will need to coordinate stuff as the event gets closer.
Paul Hill Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 Assuming we have it roadworthy by then, we will be there with our GMC Topkick based motorhome. At 12' high and 40' long it would be easy to find in a field of tiny cars...would be happy
Paul Hill Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 to offer it as a base for the weekend. Also have a couple 10 x 10 easyups, and a 10 x 20.
Bonjo2 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 YES. I can offer a place to stay, but limited parking, in New Cumberland, about 20 minutes away. Even a group of 7s at the import/kit show would be cool. It would especially cool if we could offer rides on the little autox track. I am in. Anyone hitting Carlisle this weekend or Hershey next?
RGTorque Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 i think having an unofficial autox would open up way to much liability for those running the show.
Croc Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 The last Carlisle show I went to with my seven had an autocross event operated on site during the event. It was part of the official program.
RGTorque Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 did not know that. well sounds like a great weekend!
Klasik-69 Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 What time of year are we talking about for this gathering ? I may want to do this.
