I wonder how many of us we can cram into one room.

We've tried that...the smell gets overwhelming with more than 3 people. :D

Yes.
It's Gumby's fault.

I'm all about sleeping in my car hahahaa!!! It wouldn't have been the first time! It's rather relaxing actually.... put the moonroof back and sit and look up at the stars. Really relaxing (just as long as it's not raining)

In order to get my projects completed I'll be out of money also. So hotel is out of the question, it's just too much for me at the moment. My father has been off work again after an accident at work when a double stacked tool chest full of craftsmen tools came rolling down a ramp at his plant and ran over his foot smashing all the bones in his left foot. I swear he has the worst luck! So I believe he is doubtful for Carlisle and maybe for CJ. So maybe I could get lucky and meet a hot ass chick at carlisle and then she could keep me company in the cougar.... ahh dreams can happen.

A little hint. Don't go to Expedia or Orbitz to find a room. I found that the rate for the Super 8 I'm at is listed for 130 a night there. On Super 8's website, I think it was listed for like 90 a night for the same time. There's also a Best Western thats about 20 miles out thats a bit cheaper. I did that in '04 and the place was great but for a few bucks more, I figured I'd just stay closer this year.
I think my total for the weekend will be around $245 including gas. Not including food though or parts :D Considering I missed it last year and the year before that, I only went two days and now I'm doing all three, I think its worth it.

Steve, just don't have any "dreams" about that hot ass chick while you're sleeping in your Cougar :giggle:

NO way man.... haha I figure something out. I would much rather spend 200 in some new parts rather then 200 on sleeping on a spring matress. I'll go hobo for a night no biggy. I'm going to preregister tomorrow.

2006 All Ford Nationals at Carlisle, PA Lincoln Mark VII Pre-Registration Update

Reply #36
This just in from DanL, Marketing Assistant of Carlisle Staff. As of March 10, 2006 Lincoln PRE REGISTRATION stands at:

Lincoln Mark VII - 5
Lincoln Mark VII LSC - 6
LSE - 1
Mark V - 1
Mark VIII - 2
Mark VIII LSC - 2
'76 Signature Series - 1

"This may not be complete as some people have registered their cars as odd names, etc."

This is FANTASTIC NEWS!

The 2005 All Ford Nationals Fun Field netted over 20 Lincoln Mark VIIs. This year, we're targeting TWICE as many Lincoln Mark VII owners to PRE REGISTER their vehicles! Our goal is to provide as many classes of Lincoln Mark VII judging as possible to encourage fair and even judging.

If you are NOT one of the PRE REGISTERED Lincolns listed above, I encourage you to do so NOW. Spread the word! We sincerely hope that the Carlisle Staff can look at our numbers before the May cut off date and, at a minimum, provide one STOCK and one MODIFIED area, for our Lincoln Mark VIIs.

Go to the Cars At Carlisle forum an thank DanL and DaveP for their assistance in showing every one what we already know; Lincoln makes the BEST automobiles!

It's cheaper for me to make the two extra round trips from my house rather than stay up there.

Is anyone willing to split a room if I decide to get one for 70/night?

So for two nights, it would be $70 each.

Notice I said "if I decide..."

Just wondering if anyone would be willing to split a room however, I am leaning toward making the round trips.  Coming home allows me to clean the car, not have to pack for the whole weekend, unload any purchases, sleep in my own bed, not have to leave my car in a public parking lot but rather my garage......I think I just convinced myself to come home every night if I go to the show this year.

Now I just have to decide if I'm even going.

I think that most places in Carliskle are already booked for that weekend. I booked in January and had to settle for a 30 minute drive from the hotel to the fairgrounds.

I found some decent places in Chambersburg, PA with normal rates.  It's just a 20-25 minute drive down an interstate so it's an easy drive.
