(don't know what's going on next weekend; Kit/Import is in the middle of May)


It's a great time.. worth the trip.
Quick synopsis:

It's Kit Car / Foreign Car weekend... place is big Fairgrounds.

Swap meet: mostly import car junk

Show Field... lotsa foreign cars, good turnout of Kit cars, most years a good Cobra turnout
The MidAtlantic boys from VA and DC usually caravan up, last year about a dozen guys.... ya get to meet BlackJack!

The Barn...Indoor exhibition area, most of the names show: ERA, FFR, Unique, SPF. ERA typically brings 4-6 nice cars.

Several other indoor buidings with exhibitors.

Outdoor exhibits around the buildings.

Saturday is usually bigger day.

I'm planning to be there Sat and Sun.

Next week is the regular auto show and swap meet at Carlisle. I have never been to Carlisle's show, but apparently it is quite large drawing vendors from all over the country. I don't know if it is large as the show in Hershey, but it is supposed to be very good.

As Ron said, the Kit Car/Import Nationals is the weekend of May 16-18th. Ron, if you've ever been to the Englishtown Autoshow and Swap Meet, next week's event at Carlisle is basically the same thing, just bigger.

Chaplin You forgot to tell him about the 6 inches of mud in the parking lot. The vendor area was just wet on Sat. The pizza is getting better. I am going to Carlisle Sat early and play for the day. Have dinner with the ERA gang and drive home at about 10:00 pm Racing gokarts with the guys is a blast. Give me a call if you want to go. Rick Lake 7322543536
