I hope to be there. But I don't think I'll be able to squeeze into the "stock" class this year. The rain really was lousy. That and it was cold. Watch this year be like 100* with high humidity.

EDIT: By the way Ric, you still should have gotten fist in the class last year. That 20th was clean, but it was less stock than my car. You had the only true "stock" cougar.

My Thunderbird and I will be there - I registered my car about two weeks ago. Now I just have to get her super clean and shiny for the show.

My bird will be there... probably one of the last times that particular car will see a show :( I'm steadily losing the rust battle, but it'll make for one nice daily :)

You can beat the rust battle, trust me.

You could always rent a flatbed! ;)
If the Cougar's interior was ready I'd have a 3rd person come with me to drive it down.  It's 225 miles one way for me.  5 hours at a leisurely pace aint bad.

I'm thinking about asking my father to come to Carlisle and drive the Mustang. He hasnt seen a show like this one so he might be enterested.

Cool,  By the way I like the white.  Everyone around here is getting Black on the new 05's.  Makes my color stand out.  I'm one of 2 Sonic Blue's on Long Island

I am one of two white convertables in town but the other is a V6. Black seems to be the big seller around here as well for the regular GT's  We even have a Black 2005 Saleen running the streets by the guy that did most of my motor work.

Everybody working till the last minute raise your hand! *raises hand*

I still have stuff at paint!  :disappoin Not to mention all the routine maintenance that needs doing, the poor car hasn't run in 7 months with the exception of for 20 minutes last week (the rumble was enough to get me moving again :) )

I'm using all my personal days that I have for the year to take the weekend off.  My scheduled work week is June 3,4,5,6.  Too many people on vacation so I gotta burn the personal days.  I just registered and booked a hotel :D

Bill and I were talking... probably leave LI around noon or 1pm, trek thru Manhattan and take the free escape out of NY, arrive in Carlisle around 4ish. But, like I said, we're only still discussing it so it's not final.

Just a heads up for all of you coming to Carlisle (I live in Carlisle myself) on the PA Turnpike I-76.
The Carlisle Interchange Exit 266 is under construction. There are there is limited lanes after the Toll Booth and The ramps have been changed  while the old ramps are repaved.

So be ready for  longer lines and traffic.
