Just 22 beers?   :D

In my defense . . That was almost 3 full days . . Start in the afternoon and go til bed.  Got to Carlisle early this year. . . Hit the highway at 7 am.   @ViperMan was pretty surprised . .

With the weather the way it was it was easy to suck down some cold ones.

Wish I knew where you were at.  I would have stopped by and we could have had a beer and talked Mopars and Waterskiing - two of my favorite things

This year, my Carlisle road trip stats went something like this -

I found prices were highest in Brooklyn at 2.95 (Chevron) and lowest in Manassas at 2.55 (Raceway). When I got back to the house, my neighborhood Citgo had dropped to 2.57 a gallon.

A song for you Russ.

Thanks, man :) I took chances and drove fast - while headed south through I85/Atlanta at the start of afternoon rush hour and just in time to meet a typical afternoon summer shower.

I had to, as the flow of traffic was varying between 10mph and well... fast  :-X

:cheers: (Barq's)

I know you are on the other side of the country, but if you or anyone has any reservations about this show, throw them out the window. The show is awesome. Meeting other members at the club tent that greet you like family is even awesomer.  I know, I just made up a word that is really bothering my Spellcheck.    ::)

Without a doubt!

This year the weather was better than usual and there was a crazy amount of cars and people.  This year I took the time to meet some people that I only knew online and I'm much the better for it.

I look forward to visiting the E-Body.org tent in 2019

Wonder if our show is a record for all shows . . I was told we were in competition with the Chevy show and the corvette show.  Seems those are the other large shows . .

:dunno:

Edit:  I just looked at the corvette show registration and it says more than 5000 cars!  Where do they put them all?  Maybe no parts area?
