I'm Registering today. Guess Corinne and I will be camping again. Maybe this time we wont have security trying to run us over in our tent with their golf carts.
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 03/06/06 05:38 PM
Hopefully registering this week. If my brother gets his truck done by then, we said he will register also, so that gets us a bit closer to the tent, assuming no one minds a "lowly" truck parking near our ultra cool contours, LOL.

*Trying* to register, but I keep getting a declined payment message.
You forgot me ! I'm coming and bring a friend too!Carlise virgin right here...I can't wait i'm excited.
Brandon - I added you to the list . Can't wait to see ya at the meet .

Matt - I don't know what to say . You tried a couple times today ?? Or over a couple days ? Maybe they're having c.c. troubles on their site . I'd say maybe drop 'em an e-mail & tell them about your issues .
Posted By: Matt R_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 03/25/06 05:28 PM
I guess I am registered finally. I didn't get any conformation email or finish the transaction, but my credit card was charged last night. I'll wait and see if I get an admission slip in the mail when I go home in the middle of April.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 03/27/06 02:21 AM
That makes 17 with Matt and Mike registered.
I'm sure Jason will be registering soon..18.
We'll make it. If not, I'm going to have to go find my "friends" and see if they'll give us a tent instead of a table.

Actually, I might not even be in my SHO. It might be in the shop. I'll be a TRUE troll at Carlisle this year!!

What date does Carlisle require the 25 names? I will help if I can.
IIRC , we've gotta get 25 through the weekend .

On a similar note , I haven't gotten the tent reservation form yet - don't know what's up with that . I guess I've gotta make a call .
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 03/30/06 11:53 AM
Lars, you are coming this year aren't you? I hope so!
I have my room reservation. There was some thought about bringing another car though. That's why I was asking about the cut off date for the CEG tent tally.
I may register the Mystique after all.
Lars

See ya soon!


I can't wait! Doesn't look like i'll be able to get the front bumper redone before then... but oh well, it doesn't look that bad
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/07/06 11:49 AM
Don't worry, you'll still have fun. Promise!
Here is the list I have :
  • wa2tuff
  • Checker'd SVT
  • smars
  • Luca
  • BrApple
  • richs x2
  • Matt R
  • Guitarman19853
  • juspifool

  • Berry Tweaker
  • getsum111 (?)
  • brandonsvt99
  • that Buddy Palumbo guy


The only problem I have now , is the fact that I called Carlisle Events yesterday & the girl told me they have 10 people registered with our club for the Ford event . Did everyone put "Contour Enthusiasts Group" as their club affiliation (i.e. - NOT C.E.G. ) ?? If you're unsure , please give them a call & check up on it , because if you didn't , it won't help our group get our tent !! And if you've ever been to a Carlisle event , you know how necessary a tent is .

I also checked on our tent reservation form that never arrived - so they're sending me another , that is due May 3rd . I'm waiting to hear back from the girl in charge of reservations/club registrations to see if we made our 25 needed last year to get our free tent this year . If not , bring some extra $$$ with you to Carlisle this year , as we'll be taking donations to help out with the tent rental fee .

See ya'll there !
I got a return call from Carlisle Events today , and I have great news - we made our 25 LAST year , and WILL have our FREE TENT again this year !!!!

This DOES NOT mean we can rest on our laurels , we MUST still get 25 THIS year to keep the ball rolling for NEXT year . You know you want to come this year , so GET ON WITH IT & REGISTER ! You can follow the links within this thread , or through the link in my sig . I don't care HOW you register , just DO IT NOW ! I want to see all your smilin' faces again at this year's Carlisle Ford event .
Posted By: Matt R_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/11/06 11:06 PM
Alright! I don't think I'm registered... there was a pending transaction from Carlisle for about a week on my card, and then it was removed, and I didn't get anything in the mail. I'll have to call them to see what is going on.
Well , when you do register , don't forget ... you know where this is going ... "Contour Enthusiasts Group" under the club's name , LOL !!

I met some guys from York that have a little contour club, around 6 guys. My girl just bought a 98 off of one of them and I metion to them about carlisle. They said they would check it out. The only thing is they are stuck in the York honda look with the giant aluminum wings some cut springs and factory bumper molding. I dont know if thats the look your going for? But at least it gets you a little closer to that 25 mark
Just tell them they're welcome to show off their rides with us . We're all about Contour-love , with or without parkbenches on the trunk . Heck , they could be bone stock & we'd still welcome them with open arms . Just remember to have them put "Contour Enthusiasts Group" as their club name when they register - VERY important !! They can add their club name to their window card at the event once they're parked on the field .
Closer to the event time , we'll be getting a food list together for our cookout . They're welcome to bring food/drinks & join us in the foodfest (I guess everyone's OK with that - have been in the past) . Bring food to share , share in the feast .

If you don't bring food, bring money!

I am FINALLY officially registered.
Sorry it took so long. I just kept putting it off.
I'm looking foward to it! It was alot of fun last year, and hopefully Corinne and i will be able to stay a little longer, but i dodnt know if we can do 2 nights in that tent under the hi-way. one night was brutal last year. That and the drunk security guard.
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/25/06 11:25 AM
Mike, my brother and I had a good camping spot last year, it was down the road a bit, but far fewer people. If you're still camping this year, I thing it was called Carlisle Campground or something. I'll check it out and let you know if you want. The only drunk people were the campers,LOL

Ithink my brother will be registering his truck under CEG. I'll have to double check, though. I should be reg'd next week, payday is the 30th.
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/27/06 12:55 AM
Registered, Finally. I'll check on my brother, too.
Posted By: Matt R_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/29/06 06:55 PM
Now officially registered.
Ya-Hoo !

Keep 'em coming , people ... just follow the link in my sig below . I'll say it again , remember club name "Contour Enthusiasts Group" (not CEG !) .
we're still on the fence.
Our biggest motivator is to see Allen again.
and finally meet the lovely Christine, of course.

I remember last year we registered, but were so burnt out from the SZ drive, that we dropped out last minute (and tried to send the registration to Brapple's parents).

We would probably drive over on Friday, hotel overnight, stay Saturday, then drive home Sunday.
Posted By: DanMyers Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/30/06 02:23 AM
Aw man, even kim's going? Stupid PennDOT holding my first paycheck and not paying me until June 16th!
Kim- it'd be great to see you guys there ! I can surely understand about being burned-out w/driving . That's 2 pretty long drives . Keep us in the loop with your thoughts about coming down ...

Christine's becoming a CEG legend !
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 04/30/06 02:39 AM
I hope you guys can make it this year.
I understand if you don't, as Allen said, it is a long drive, especially after the SZ drive.

LOL! A legend? hehehe.
the drive isn't that bad, well from my home it isn't, about 4 hours

My nephews 1st Birthday party is the 3rd. I didnt realize until today. So this messes with everything.
I guess maybe we can come up just for Friday, but i really wanted to do saturday-sunday.

I don't know if my brother is gonna register ($$$ issues), but I know he's still gonna come w/ me, regardless. It's a bummer so many can't make it.
Posted By: parkedcar Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/16/06 03:19 PM
well, my sister said its okay that Corinne and I dont make it to my nephews party. That was good news, until Corinne got the invitation for her new born cousins cristening for sunday.
So we are looking at friday-12Noon saturday, before we have to head back.
But of corse friday will rain, and saturday it will all be a mud pit.
Oh well, it will still be fun!

Yes, but someone has to go to the office and get us on the list so that the man in the little cart can bring it.

Less than 2 weeks.

What is everyone going to do after leaving the show each day? I say we all go out to a bar or something, or to a resturant.
Posted By: Zee_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/22/06 09:52 AM
Hey, Buddy,

I was just down (over?) to the Import Show. They didn't give oout windshild ID cards like in the past. I missed than, too, because each owner's name was on the card, so you could find out who all your online buddys were..... or leave a note for them if they weren't with their car at the moment you were there.

Anyhow, because you're the leader on this movement to get us out there, you might want to consider doing up some half-page sized cards with the Contour.org logo on it and room for a name, car info, etc.

BTW, are we gathering all in the same spot on the show field?

It's easy to gather at the Import show, as the show field is grouped into each marque.

This will be my first Ford event, so, how do we group ourselves together? Or does Carlisle group Fords be model?

(don't coount me in yet, until I talk the the daughter about bringing HER 1995 'Tour)

I'll be looking for inspiration and ideas about how to repaint her crap purple car.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/22/06 01:15 PM
We will gather in one area. All cars will be grouped by model.
We will have a tent with a CEG banner also.


I hope that you can make it!
Hmmmm ... no windshield cards ?? That stinks ! Maybe it was just for the import show ? That would make it the first Ford @ Carlisle show that I've been to that didn't have 'em . Maybe I'll have to whip sumpin' up , just in case .
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/23/06 10:55 AM
I agree. I still have my one from last year framed in my garage. I was kinda hoping to start a collection of them.

So the tent is a lock?
I thought we had to have 25 members registered.

* wa2tuff

6 more to go.
I'm not sure if Suzie and Matt are actually registered though. I left "SMars" on the list until it is confirmed otherwise.

Lars, we will have a tent this year but it's not looking promising for next year though. Need to get to 25 this year for us to have the tent next year. If we don't make it we will have to pay for the tent.

If the unthinable happens, and we ...gulp....don't get a tent next year, I've got 2 screen houses I'll bring. Each one is about 10x10. We could just use those instead of paying for one. That, or kidnap some folks on the way there and MAKE them register under CEG.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/24/06 01:10 AM
I like the kidnapping idea Scott.
We probably could use the screen houses. Good idea!

Thanks for using my name CHRISTINE!!!. That will make it hard for the FBI, LOL. If you guys want, I could bring one or both of them this year, too. It was pretty warm last year. If you guys think we need them, let me know.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/24/06 10:43 PM
All I can say to the FBI is...I know nothing. I have no idea who or what you are talking about. LMAO!

If needed, Allen will get rid of the post for us.
I got my receipt today. I can't wait to see the confusion on the guys faces when they go to put me in the group. I always had trouble when I have my Contour. I always get yelled at for not having an svt!

Yea, every year I went they gave me crap. This year should be a real treat. I usually just give in and pretend to listen to them and then just move anyway.

If they try that this year, use the Jedi Mind Trick. "This is not the Fusion you are looking for..."
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/25/06 11:20 AM
Tell them that you have an SVT Fusion.

Or tell them it is a "Post" Contour SVT proto-type.... LOL

Thank you
Mike

i believe that you can registrer the day of the even, just put down the club as the Contour enthusists group and you will be all set
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/26/06 05:07 PM
Welcome Mike!

Nope it's not too late to register. As Brian said you can even register the day of the event.
If you'd like to register today you may go to:


Carlisle Registration

As previously stated, make sure you list the club name as "CONTOUR ENTHUSIASTS GROUP", if you list "CEG" we will not get credit for you registering.

If you need more information see the first page of this thread. Or, feel free to PM me and I will help you.

Where in NJ are you? Tell us more about your SVT.

We look forward to meeting you!

I will just argue like I do every other year and park where I want.

Hey
I live in Hunterdon County NJ in a reallly small town called Califon. I've had my SVT for about a year now, and I just love the car. I have a 1999 SVT Contour and its Silver with a midnight blue interior. I bought it off of a local guy who kept in in amazing condition. It's all stock and I just wanted to go to an event where people share the same love for the car as I do because when I am at school or around home, no one appreciates this car.
MIKE
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/27/06 11:20 PM
Welcome Mike. I think you found the event. It's a great time. Follow the link in this thread to register. You'll have a blast.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/28/06 04:28 AM
I know where Califon is. My husband is from Annandale.

Will you be staying for all three days of the show?

Can't wait to see your SVT and you at Carlisle.

I work in Oldwick NJ, Califon is really close to there. I know there is a Black SVT that sits at a house off of Cokesbury Rd. It's always there when I drive by...
I will be going along with Pete, Jesse, Antonio and others from MD. I didn't get to register so I'll just register at the gate. If I register now I don't think my packet will make it back to me by next Friday...sorry

-Scott
my uncle (who takes his restored '52 dodge wayfarer to the the all chrysler nationals) said something about having to choose a class for the car show... does this apply to us? or is it just Contours or SVT & non SVT?

Register online now man, then we get credit for CEG. Last year I lost my card, but they have all your stuff in the computer when you get there anyways.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/29/06 12:23 PM
Ryan, you don't have to chose a class. The classes are non-SVT Contour/Mystique and one for the SVT's.

Scott, you can still register now you as you can print out your registration and as Matt said they will have your information available if you don't bring it. Either way we will get credit.

Thanks for letting us know that Jess and Antonio will be coming along.
Posted By: parkedcar Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/29/06 03:36 PM
Bad news again....
We might not be making it at all.
Corinnes mom is in the ICU right now. She has been since Thursday night.
She has myasthenia gravis and its really affected her breathing.
And it looks like she has lymphoma too.
Good news is, the doctors seem very confident about curing the lymphoma. But she will need chemo or radiation.
And since she already as the gravis (which makes you extremely weak on its own), the treatment will be especially tough on her, and she might still be in the hospital
If she is still there, we wont be going. If she is out and doing better, we will try to make it.
I'll keep you all posted.
I owe a few of you some vinyl while i am out there. If i cant make it, i will try to get it to Chris and maybe she can get it to all of you.

For the time being, if you could keep corinnes mother in your prayers, we would all really appreciate it.


Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/29/06 03:50 PM
I'm so sorry! Give Corinne a big hug for me!
Tell her that we are sending our thoughts and prayers!! Please keep us updated Mike.

I will be glad to get the vinyl from you and bring it along. I will PM you my home and cell numbers so you can reach me and we can set something up.

EDIT: PM sent.
any idea where I am going to be stuck?
Posted By: getsum111 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/30/06 10:39 AM
Mike,
I hope Corrinne's Mom is OK. We'll keep you in our prayers.
Mike - sorry to hear about Corinne's mom I hope she has a speedy/full recovery . We'll certainly understand if you can't make it to Carlisle , you've gotta take care of family . She'll be in my thoughts ...

Chris - looks like you'll be stuck with us .
question for those who have been at carlisle for awhile, I forget if it was posted or not but do they provide water to was cars with, or anything else? I am thinking that my car isn't bad since I cleaned it up for SZ but I would like to wash it when I get to Carlisle and then do a final detail for the show.

Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/30/06 01:47 PM

So many people won't be there on Friday? I'm wondering if I should leave really early Friday morning to make it down there by noon-ish.

Matt on your suggestion about traffic and all, I am planning to get to the hotel in Harrisburgh around 9 pm, so that means I am leaving enfield around 3, stoping home for dinner and some other things around 4 to 5 ish, etc
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/31/06 12:05 PM
On Friday there will probably be four to five of us there.
Come early if you want.

For those traveling Route 78 through the Hamburg (PA) area....the road is open, two lanes in each direction.

That's the way you will come Brian. I sent you a PM.

Cool, you'll be there early Chris. Then I can have lots of time checking out your Fusion.

I thought that it was just didn't recall exactly from when I looked at the maps last night.
Bad news guys, I will not be able to make it Carlisle. I blew the differential in my car last month, and the transmission is still in the hands of Terry Haines. I was hoping that I would have it back in time, but it just isn't going to happen. I guess I won't be bringing the hotdogs either. Cya all next year.
Posted By: LUCA_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 05/31/06 10:31 PM
I'm sorry about your car. I was looking forward to seeing you again too.

No worries about the hotdogs.

Hope you get the car back up and running soon!
Posted By: Matt R_dup1 Re: ALL NEW Fords at Carlisle '06 thread - 06/01/06 04:43 AM
Looks like the weather is going to be the same as last year. Raining and crappy Friday, hot and sunny Saturday.
