Hey guys,

I have most of my major components in place for the 2010 show but I'm looking for your input. Some things I might even be able to implement as early as next year.

I do listen to the suggestions that I receive and I try to do what I can to utilize them. Many of you have called, emailed and/or PM'd me and those folks know that I do listen and I've implemented many of those ideas.

I can't do everything and NO I can't get rid of "the hill", make it cooler or stop people from decoding your fender tags

However, I would like to hear ideas for celebrities, activities, etc...or an idea for something we've never tried before. No matter how off the wall it may seem, go ahead and throw it out there. You never know what might stick

Feel free to PM me on here or email me directly at EdB@CarlisleEvents.com

Thanks everybody!

Ed

more scenery

After looking at the pic , A couple more trees would be nice ..

Your show is the best ever ..
Ive been going to your events for ? twenty years ?

Dont know what would complement it ?

You bring in celebs . Maybe a couple more like

Big Willie or ?

The car raffles need to get more enticing ..
maybe real muscle cars with pedigree , what would be really cool would be a barn find aar cuda or
challenger r/t or 71 6 pack car that would cost
more than a fury ragtop bodo car , but Ill bet you more people would stay til Sunday for the raffle. I understand that a full blown resto would cost a lot .

lower vendor food prices ?

another real restroom for the ladies..

Two nights of racing at Quarter Aces ? Fri Nite ?

I duno everything else is pretty nice .. Good Luck .

Anyway to discourage ebay sales would be great ..
to create more revenue from parts sales or entice people to look for parts there again ..

Or team up with ebay and have the cars bidding on display ?

Take a giant Helicopter and move the Dealership onto the fun field. How hard could it be?

Everything else is perfect.

I agree , Ed. Everything is great ! Maybe another dealership for the cruise party. Grounds are always clean, security great, nice staff, sales are good. I don't know, maybe some "ringers" for the bikino contest ? LOL How about a way to buy spots . There were a ton of empty spots last show. If they know they are not coming, maybe first come-first serve to use their spot ? I am trying to upgrade mine to closer to my Uke brother Andy !

How about a Pro-Touring section? Oh, wait a minute, there would only be like 6 cars....

Ed,
This was my first year to Carlisle. I bought a lot of new parts and a few used. There were a lot of things to liked about the event. I have been going to the Nats for ten years so in comparison Carlisle offered many unique things that I liked. The bathroom facilities are better but I had never seen tipping attendants before.
It is an eight hour drive for me so we headed back home Saturday afternoon but I hope to get to go back soon.
Thanks for having such a great event and keep up the good work. BTW, you were very helpful when I needed to make hotel arrangements and take in some sightseeing. Thanks!

Please explain to me how this is an upcoming Mopar event 2 weeks notice ?!?

Please someone explain this to me.

The food is good for the money. Now, E-Town, that's a different story! How about cover for the SME judged cars. Maybe that would bring more cars into the judging and they would stay for display longer?

Let everything else go before Carmany's (sp?) pretzels, best I've ever had.


I have to commend you guys on your trash pick-ups. We always have a can by the Moparts tent and its serviced promptly - we do appreciate that.

Your registration process and its speed are excellent too.


I for one don't care about the car giveaway, burnout contest, bikini contest, etc, I'll go anyway - but I like that you still put the effort in to set it all up. The showroom is awesome - worth the walk.


Since you can't move the fairgrounds to central New jersey, I have nothing else.

Make Abe Vigoda head judge!

I'd love it if a good exhaust fan was installed in the men's restroom under the granstands. The service is great, but, the stink...

Any 1/4 mile tracks close by??..we'd go but mainly for the racing, the 1/8 mile track don't cut it

Better screening of the "beauty" contestants.

Need better support for crusing at night, perhaps Main St downtown.
Ever been to Ocean City Md, the cars are out until 2am

Here is another :
If you have been lucky enough to win an award, the problem is; the older cars should go first , most do not have ac and don't like to idle for long periods. Put all the new stuff at the end. They don't have the problems that the older cars have.
