Well.......... Since no one seems to be volunteering, I am willing to take the lead and organize this Carlisle adventure if everyone wants me too. ACRISPY1 has said that he will assist me with this if it is okay with everyone who plans to attend.

If you agree with me taking the lead, please let me know via this thread ASAP as July 11-13th is rapidly approaching.

I have no objections at all. I'm still hoping to make it for my 3rd year in a row. Someone has to keep Tony in check!!

You've got my vote.. and my thanks for taking the reigns. We have every intention of making it again this year. Just a reminder, I believe that we had enough attend last year that if we register as XFI we should qualify for a tent.
Thanks
Rick

You get my vote. I will be there again this year. In fact I am all signed up as of now. As mentioned above, make sure you sign up under club crossfire international so we can get a free tent again next year.
I am going down for the spring show in two weeks also.

Ok with me too. Don't forget the tent. It was my understanding that because we had 25 Crossfire's last year we get a free tent this year. There is a blurb about the tent issue on the Carlisle web site. I'm glad to help out but it looks like I am only available on the Saturday of the event.

Sorry Rick I didn't read all of your post.

Ok guys I'm ready for Carlisle, I'm #2751. And yes we do have the free tent, did JD have the XFi banner last year? Does anyone have the banner? if not we need to get one done up, they require a banner with the clubs name on all tents.

By the way guys the only person who can keep me in check is my wife, and she will be there again.

Thanks for taking the lead with this event. I will not be attending but after talking with Senna weeks ago he wondered if anyone was heading up the meet as Redcross has pretty much moved on and Senna does not know if he will be going again this year and has somewhat withdrawn from the forum. Only logged in one time since last fall.
Best of luck to you all and I hope it becomes a great meet and event for all who attend. Gary

Thank you to everyone who has responded to this thread. I will do the best I can to make this GTG as organized and fun as possible. For those who do not know me, my name is Frank (XFire2005).

This post is a “kickoff” to provide show info well in advance in order to get a large group of crossfire owners together.

We will need your cooperation, ideas, and suggestions to make this a successful and fun show for all of our loyal and fanatical XFire owners!


**** Be sure to register under; CLUB: Crossfire International ****

Information:

The show will be held at the Carlisle, Pennsylvania Fairgrounds on Friday July 11, 2008 through Sunday, July 13th, 2008.

The Carlisle All-Chrysler Nationals is a Mopa-lover’s paradise with attendees converging on the Fairgrounds from all over the world. This weekend-long event crosses all eras of the Chrysler marque from classic to muscle and everything in between. Last year’s Chrysler Nationals had over 2,000 cars in attendance on the “Show Field” including everything from antiques , Jeeps, AMX’s , Barracudas, Coronets, Superbirds, Chargers, and many, many others.

We had 32 Crossfires gathered there in 2007. Let’s shoot for 50+ this year!!!!

Hotel Accommodations:
The following link (Country Inn) will bring you to where I stayed last year along with a number of other XFire owners. I have already made reservations for myself for this year. As of yesterday (Wednesday, 4/2/2008) , there were only thirty rooms left open. I suggest you make your reservations as soon as possible as many other motels in the area are already booked for the show weekend.
The Country Inn is close to the Fairgrounds, clean and fairly new. This would be a great hotel for all Crossfires to unite the Friday evening before the next days show!

There is a great .25 car wash near by for pre-show touch ups.
