I totally agree with Hudson .. enough with the political statements.... I always try to stay neutral .... its a car show not a campaign rally and the mobility carts... there was a girl having a seizure laying on the floor in one of the buildings by the mens room .. the bathroom attendant ran and got a fan to keep her cool and he called for help , he was running an extension cord out amongst all the people I grabbed the end to help him and I plugged the fan in ... evidently the cord was keeping someone on a scooter from moving and somebody said "the scooter can't get out " really ??? I would think someone having a medical emergency is a little more important !! I agree too.

First off my wife and I appreciate the 2 staff ladies at gate 5 that were very helpful to us as my wife has asthma and we had to leave early around 130 because of the heat/humidity. We find the emergency situation and people's behavior upsetting .We hope the lady was ok! Im a retired nurse and my wife works in medicine.On days like yesterday there should be more medical staff maybe in different areas ,have air conditioning in a few of the buildings ,water stations cool water shower stationg like you had years ago,throughout the carlisle fairgrounds, it would definitely help everyone, especially since there's only one emergency cooling station and my wife said it was packed!

Craziest thing I saw in the parts section was the totally rusted E body convert windshield frame and cowl for $3500.00 !! I saw that too, and just said wow. I bought a bunch of AMD sheet metal to save on shipping plus you get that nice show discount. I loved every second of the show as usual. You have to expect it to be brutally hot and uncomfortable there so you need to plan accordingly. I got to spend time laughing and hanging out with my usual Carlisle friends. I already can't wait for next year.

About the scooters, I’ll be back on one next year (if still available). My knee got very bad walking around, had to sit 3 times till I could walk again wife and I left at 2:30 on Friday. On Saturday I could not go so we packed it in. Like one said a lot of FAT lazy people on them. Also saw a lot of banned golf carts out there too. Swearing around kids, this is an ADULT car show not a kiddy fun land, leave them home! As far as political, DONT look at the stuff, real tough today being democrats I guess. Had some good conversations with nice guys in the food court. Most all were very friendly. I wonder if the IRS would be interested in some of the ‘businesses’ on the grounds. Anyway rant over.

Guess they'll really address the lack of amenities they SHOULD have because of weather, when some poor soul dies from heat exhaustion & have to pay a high lawsuit. Geez: cost nothing to just have a few water sprinklers out& about the grounds.

If someone needs a scooter that's fine. ( if you have a bad knee, you are a great candidate for one, especially with the heat.) Just don't cut me off/park in the middle of the aisle/ and generally act like rush hour in china. A few times I saw 2-3 carts cruising together like they were a small gang or something, playing follow the leader. I bet they have a space set up for just carts on the show field next year. lol. "Who needs to look at super bee's, there is a 2017 rascal mobility scooter with a set of wheelie bars that you gotta see!" As far as those loudmouth guys swearing, if they were real men they would know better. You don't have to conduct yourself like that in front of kids and the fairer sex. I am not a Democrat. I am not really political at all. I will state this again however, ENOUGH with all the political b.s. It was a car show, not a rally to get someone elected or cry about how your group of liars ( whichever side you are on) were treated unfairly by the other side.

Used to be we would go to Carlisle to get some good deals on parts, now the prices are way over the top FOR SCRAP PILE JUNK! ((( truth )))) !!!! I'm thinking 60 % of the stuff is the junk that people took off and replaced (sheet metal) ?? that would be ok but 700 for a 73-charger deck lid with a completely rusted out lower seam ??? the same thing you're trying to replace! I never seen so many junk rear charger valances.

Swearing around kids, this is an ADULT car show not a kiddy fun land, leave them home! really? then in the next breath you'll be crying that young people are no longer in to the hobby. i took my son there at 6 or 7 years old. my daughter at a year old and for years after that. kids are the future of the hobby. stop being a typical grumpy old head.

I left at about 130 yesterday. Was it me or did anyone notice the amount of empty show field spots in the classic zone? Lots of modern representation.
classics at carlisle have been dying a slow death for years now. all those record number of cars they always brag about aren't classics. they are modewrn muscle. nothing wrong with that but its something to know before going.
