Karen is a likely right seater. She’d like to meet Julie and Patti. She likes Dale’s wife too; I think they talked knitting last Pumpkin Run. 

I’ll be there!

Not possible to predict  if I’ll have a lovely lass in the passenger seat. But I’m workin’ on it!

I am looking forward to being there my car won’t be that pretty ,but she will be reliable.

Now Bill….don’t be hurtin your car’s feelings. Your car is pretty … in a racing sort of way!

Louise and I are registered to attend. We will be towing Tinker-belle with our Roadtrek camper and camping on the grounds. Louise is an accomplished knitter, and would be delighted if others were interested also. Looking VERY forward to May.   Rollie

2012 was probably the record.

2013 we should also have Schu and Wobby

Wobby’s been kinda mia here lately. But he’ll turn up again I’m sure.

I’ll have mine there even if she’s not running. Plan on towing her to the motel and driving to the show. And if she’s NOT running I can always tow her into the show grounds. Right?

Allen,

If Roy is done beating you up … yes, you may tow your car onto the show field.

Now…get off the computer, get the h–l back into the garage, and get back to work!

How was that Roy? OK? 😀

Hi folks,

Once again, the Speedster Owners Group (SOG) has graciously extended to the
TDReplica.com group access to their hotel. At least for now, they have
asked us to limit our rooms to six. In order to control this, I am not publishing the hotel
arrangement here. Please send me a private message and I will get back to you. Several of us are members of SOG and our rooms will not count towards the six. You SOG guys know who you are. If you are not sure, private message me.

The rest of the weekend activities are open to all.

THURSDAY 5/16:

– Early arrivals all day.

– Evening country cruise to the
Caddy Shack restaurant for dinner at the Armitage Country Club. This is the
tenth year we???re cruising to the Shack and it???s ALWAYS a fun drive. We???ll enjoy
the same great food and friendly wait staff we???ve become accustomed to. http://www.caddyshackrestaurant.com

– Hospitality suite at the host hotel (BYOB and
snacks)

FRIDAY 5/17:

– Morning country cruise through the rolling back roads of central
Pennsylvania.  Bring your camera; you won???t want to miss all the photo
opportunities!  And we just might stop by the Sports Emporium for a few
competitive hot laps on the outdoor go-kart track or the indoor slick track.
This has proven to be a favorite in the past, especially for the ladies who may
need to relieve some stress after listening to the guys bench racing all day
long. http://www.carlislesportsemporium.com/

– Then we head to the Carlisle fairgrounds where we???ll register for the
weekend, walk the grounds, check out the swap meet and grab something to
eat.   

– Join SOG under their club tent, enjoying all the sights and sounds of this event. Many activities are
happening all day long at Carlisle; check their calendar and the program in
your goodie bag for event details of the day.

– Photo session in the hotel parking lot before the cruise.

– Evening cruise to the Stoney Creek
Inn.  This location is tentative as we work on final details, watch
for an update in the coming weeks.     

– Then we cruise back to the hotel
for some socializing and partying in the hospitality room (BYOB and snacks).

SATURDAY, 5/18:

– Our big day on the show field (aka the ???Fun??? field) at the Carlisle Import
and Kit Nationals. The biggest event of its kind in the country! We’ll park the TDs together if we can, adjacent to the Spedster/Spyder cars.

– Morning ???Egg Sandwiches??? reunion at the Carlisle High School Marching Band
food booth (under the grandstands). Ask me about the sandwiches, aka “sammiches”. There are a couple great stories here. This is the only food vendor that is not a business. The cash register and order fulfillment are staffed by band members. The grill is manned by band parents. They work hard to raise money for their band. As the parent of a former high school band member and drum major, I know what it costs! Support these kids. They deserve it!

– Join SOG under their club tent, enjoying all the sights and
sounds of this event. Many activities are happening all day long at Carlisle;

the day.

freshen up, don our Hawaiian shirts and meet up in the parking lot.

parking lot before cruising to dinner.

I have signed up to arrive Thursday with Karen. Hope I’ll be able to make good! 

Yeah. I’m down for Caddy Shack and all. It’s a two hour run from my house, so that means taking Thursday off–both of us. Which is why I say “I hope.”
