I LOVE seeing all the GT's lined up... always something that sticks with me year in and year out.

This year should be stellar!

Looking forward to seeing you and all those pretty GTs again. Joe's black GT was awesome and he posted he is showing up again. Hopefully H brings his Blue GT. I can't wait.....

Thanks

Accommodations are all the same, pick your run of the mill hotel chain. Nothing specifically "secure", but far from a "city" environment. Stay at one not in downtown Carlisle. We usually stay at the Hampton. Every year we go, we trailer, and leave car(s) on the show field, and drive tow rig back and forth.

It is a great event 3000 fords in a huge field!! We have a blast (we have only missed one in ~10 years).

Would like to register.
First time at this event.
Showcase versus show field?! Difference?
If in the tent which I presume is showcase, car can’t be moved therefore not available for the drive and other activities, whereas show field we are permitted to?!

Showcase is for GT’s that will be stationary in our special display building for the entire event (special cars - some new GT, unique cars, race cars, etc.). The showfield and tent display are one and the same - just sign up for showfield. It’ll be a great time!!

Stoked you’ll be joining us.

The car pictured above isn’t even the same color as Fred’s/Spartan’s GT.
