Carlisle All-Ford Nats. '04

Allen,
You can count on me to round up at least 10 Tours to represent the CAP CEG again.

I recently bought a 98 svt and was planning on going to Carlisle with a friend. If I register do I get to park in the site or do I just admission? I was there years ago and remember parking across the street. I live close enough to drive back and forth, so can I leave and come back?

The car entry will get you everything you need to enter and park in the show.

Just to clarify a bit further , the club pre-registration will get you entry for 2 people for all 3 days , parking on the showfield for those days , a dash plaque , a goodie bag , and tickets to try to win the give-away car (a '64.5 Mustang

) . Plus , by pre-registering before February 28th , you'll help us secure a CLUB TENT for another year .

In addition to all that , you get to hang with US for a couple days

Speaking of which, Allen: can you send me the pre-order stuff?

Are ya talkin' old-school snail mail , or tha copy I have online to copy & printout ??

Can't you sign up online???

By the time the online signup is up & running , the CLUB PRE-REGISTRATION will be long gone

& THAT's where we need to shine . We need 25 people to pre-register to get the tent again . We can do it ...

John - right click , save as , print it out , write $30 check , mail it in

Guess what - didn't work!

Hmmmm ...

I just did it again & it worked just fine for me .
Here's what I did :
Clicked on the link , when it came up , I clicked on the tiny little "title" picture to bring it up to full size . Once it loaded , I right-clicked & chose "Save Picture As" , then I printed it out . You can also choose "Print Picture" instead of "Save As" & cut out the middle BS .

If you still have trouble , just PM me your info & I'll send one out snail mail

Worked for me...

Whoops. Fixed the link in my sig!

I don't know what it was - something with my work computer. I finally ended up getting it to work but I had to do a LOT of stuff I shouldn't've.

If we are all going to be there representing CEG. Do we have a banner? If not i will be more than happy to make and donate an 8x4' CEG banner. And if there is anything else aong the lines of signs, stickers and any other vinyl work, let me know.

We don't have a "banner", more like a "sign".

A banner would be great!

Dang...thats hideous...lol. No offense.
I will Make a choroplast sign as well. What size Banner would you like me to bring. also, i will make a load of the www.contour.org stickers too, and the oval CEG logo. Those i will sell for like $2 and $5. But the banner and sign are on the house

Well

... I made the sign as a last-minute idea when we got our first tent at Carlisle a few years back

. We've just sorta used it ever since . It's just a "to the point" thing . It's a plastic signboard with vinyl letters . I figured just in case it rained , weatherproof stuff was a must

. I just wanted people to know who we were , unlike many of the "tent people" .

If you want to make a banner , that'd be great

! Something a bit more "professional" would be nice . The tent is (I believe) 20'x20' .

Now I'm really looking forward to Carlisle

. Hopefully we can get 25 people , so we actually get the tent

i didnt mean tyo be harsh with the sign...it got its point...lol i was thinking black banner with silver and white vinyl. And maybe the sign, white with black lettering. and if a tent is 20x20 i'll do the 4x8. since that is pretty much standard. i'll start it when i move into my shop next month (too crammed in my basement right now to do it)

No offense was taken by your comment , don't worry

. With a 4x8 sign , people will know who we are , that's for sure

. Is that size OK with the rest of the "regulars" ??

Can you camp on the fair grounds? I'm having a hard time finding a hotel... But I have a tent!! Camping maybe more fun if it DOESN'T Rain like last year again...

I believe on the bottome left of the form there is a small section asking if you want a camping spot for $20....not sure exactly but take a look

I'm all set found a hotel...

Anyone have a list of registered people?

I guess I need to get busy locating a hotel. Need one that will take my dogs.
If ya'll need more 'tours to get the tent I'll register Steph's.

I've registered.

Car won't be there, but it's registered.

Check is going out tommorrow

Well, it looks like this place is only about 5 hours from Cleveland, O hi o, so maybe....I went to the Fairground's web site, but it really didn't say alot (to me) about what we'd be doin for 2 to 3 days. Is this just like hangin out at Denny's or the same parking lot where everybody goes on Saturday night etc, for a couple of days--which isn't bad--or is there alot going on? I'd like to see some vendors that sell stuff we can use. I saw drags, burn out contests, and a couple of other things but what else is there? Can you bring alcoholic beverages? Fill me in, I think I'd like to go and I still have time to register.

Dude, you should DEFINITELY come down! I want to see that SVT.

Seriously, it's a lot of fun and there are a LOT of vendors plus presence by SVT and a lot of other big companies. That's where I got my dyno from last year, bought a few things, saw a lot of stuff - including two HOT lesbians in a Cobra.

It's a lot of fun.

THERE'S OUR DRINKING SPOT!!

Good lookin' out man.

**taps on monitor**
HELLO ... is this thing on ?!?!?!

Allen, are we close to 25 yet??

I've only managed to get 5 from Capitol CEG. Many guys are in difficult situations that wont allow them to attend - child on the way, their Tour is totalled, etc. I'm hoping to get at least 3 more.

if it comes down to it, i will sign up the irnon man...its not pretty but it will be an extra conotur

I don't know the tally so far , but I'm getting the feeling it's gonna come down to the wire this year

. I know we're down at least 2 cars this year from PA alone for sure , Ash sold his SVT & my brother sold his '95 SE . Plus , it looks like attendence is a little grim so far

. I hope we can pull it off (fingers crossed) .

Only this week yet to take advantage of the CLUB RATE pre-registration !!!

Allen, any chance to call Carlisle for an extension?

Sent registration in on Monday.

Bah......... My "contour camp out"

i'm sure its not terrible for some one who isnt 250lbs. I'm a big guy, and the contour is not exactly a "big" car. I slept, but wasnt extremely comfy, but at least it helped stop the noises coming from my friends tent. He was camping with his gf and to this day i cant figure out what those sounds where

<-- sleeping at home in a bed,then driving a bit to carlisle. w00t!

I can understand that. Im a skinny brotha, so for me i could have slept between the seats......anyway, see you guys there.

I am interested in going, I am gonna try to get some other SE MI CEGer's to go. We shall see!

That's a haul

. It'd be cool to see some long-riders .

Well, it would be the weekend, and I can camp. It would be a haul, but the SE's gotta prepresent, besides we run 87 baby!

HEy.....i hear that, all the SVT's move aside....

LOL thats right. don't forget about my sleeper the grand pappy looking lx v6 5spd with disc brakes and no abs yea yea lol. no power windows no power locks but she has a shitload of power under the hood that loves to be unleashed on unexpecting rice.

WOOT WOOT! whatever that means.....Props to all teh non-SVTers, ok im done.

We love & welcome all trim levels of Contiques . No discrimination here

Yeah, i wouldnt worry to much what your car looks like. I registered the ironman too so we could get the tent. That thing has 267k miles, a dented hood, hole in the rear bumbper, and a smashed up front right fender with the taped on cornner light too match. I'll clean her up as best i can, but shes not perfect

I have a pretty badass SE tho...

Check it!

Can't wait to see it in person.

did you guys get me on the list?

I am still game for this!

Just an FYI...

I have rooms booked at 2 different hotels and I only need one... So if there is anyone needing a place to stay I can give you the info. Otherwise I'm just going to cancel the 2nd hotel before I'm locked in.

Another FYI:
Same here. I have two extra rooms (long story). I'll hang on to them until 20 May for those that may need a room.

I'm gonna talk to Derek and his bro. We were kinda thinkin about camping but I think I can pop for two nights...

Well, I'll take both spots, one for my tan piece of poo and my mondy rc car

How do I go about registering? And is there a camp ground nearby? I am sooo broke.

Pete,
Check out the post in the Capitol CEG section.

Click me!

Should have links to all the info you need.

I got the tent reservation form in the mail today . I must call to double-check that THEY have us listed for 25+ cars , but since we made the count last year , there's NO PRE-PAY needed

. I'll be sending it back to them ASAP to ensure we have our tent again (year #3) .

Any news on our CEG banner ?? Is the offer still on the table ??

Can't wait to see ya'll again !

Silly question: Are they going to let all contours there? I seem to remember there being some question if the area was for SVT's only or all model contours?

Originally posted by ShinyRedSport:

Last year the area was for all Contours. I would assume it would be the same this year also.

I know it was for all models, but wasn't there some guy working there that said it was for SVT's only? Or am I just remembering non-existant events again?

Originally posted by ShinyRedSport:

2 year ago they broke us up inito "SVT" and "Contours".

Last year we were all together.

Alright hot, thanks! =)

I think we should be a little more coordinated this year!

Andy W. will be bringing his grill again to cook hot dogs and such.

If you would like to join in on the cookout on Saturday (lunch), please bring a few $ to reimburse Andy for the food, and please volunteer to bring something.

Here are some things you could bring:
(Please check the other thread to see what is taken.)
- a 12 pack of soda
- a 12 pack of water
- a cooler and a bag of ice
- forks
- a bag of chips
- a bag of cookies
- a box of crackers
- a jar of salsa
- hot dog buns

If everyone who wants in brings one thing, we should be very well set!

I am keeping track of the "Cookout" in the Capitol CEG section.

Let's get this rolling!

Did I miss something? What happened Pete?

When are people gonna start showing up? Are there any plans to meet somewhat before going in or what?

I PM'd a couple guys (Checker'd SVT and LUCA) who said they have extra hotel rooms booked, any one else in case theirs are gone?

I'm going to try to - depends on whether I need a new clutch or not.

I thought you just got a new clutch??!!

Pete, I'm sorry to hear about what happened.

I searched after I asked.

Thanks, LUCA. I'm going on 8+ months now having driven it one time.

Working on getting a new engine put in before Carlisle.

wa2tuff,
The Capitol CEG will all be caravaning up on Satruday morning arriving around 9:30 am and departing in the evening sometime.

Don't forget to post what you are bringing for the cookout!

I shined mine all up. spent 12 hours too

Then the brakes failed as i was pulling in my driveway and i smashed into the ironman

did a couple hundred dollars of damage to the svt and clobbered the ironman. I got 3 weeks to get the SVT in shape. repaint the bumper, remount the splitter new brake lines.

Well THAT just totally bites the big one

!! Not just one , but both Contours damaged

. You'll be busy .

I forgot to mention , I got our tent confirmation form the other day . We've got a TENT again this year

!

I figured there'd be no problems , but it's always nice to see it in writing .

PETE - I hope your ride's done in time

. Between your car & Antonio's car crapping out , there's two stellar-looking MD rides down for the count

Yeah, hoping I can get my clutch and tranny in by Carlisle...

So much for the new interior and paint this year.

bad luck

New paint & interior are overrated

. Just so you & Puff make it there .

I'll be there. i'm from ohio and will be driving over with my boyfriend and his brother in their turbocoupes and contours. i'll be registering this week.
see ya there.

desiree (formerly known as desiblue97)

what should i register as? i know last year, those who didn't register as SVT's, were told to move their cars to a Mid-size economy class section that was lame. in fact, some guy with a ford aspire with a big band-aid stuck on it took first place. let me know.

I requested , once again , that they put all Contours/Mystiques together regardless of trim level (SVT , SE , GL , etc.) . We'll see what happens . Maybe what we'll do , if they split 'em up again , is just move everyone into the same area & change the class names on the dash cards & be done with it . I ask them each year , we'll see if they listen this year

.

A note to anyone still registering :
Don't forget to register the Contour under CONTOUR ENTHUSIASTS GROUP (not C.E.G. !) So that we'll be sure to get the count towards our free tent .

We look forward to seeing you there !

BlueSEChic- Does your boyfriend or his brother need any TurboCoupe wheels ?? I have a set I'd like to sell & get out of my garage . You can see pics in my sig. below . Just click on it & look for the folder (the folder should be HERE ) . If he wants 'em , I'll bring 'em to Carlisle with me .

Originally posted by BlueSEchic:

1st place!! LOL!! I remember that car! Wonder if the band-aid will still be there this year.

I still have one hotel room available if anyone is in need. It's at the Super8 Carlisle North, 1800 Harrisburg Pike. Shoot me a PM if ya need a room. I'll be cancelling it at the beginning of next week if no one needs it.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my car is at least running so I can putter it up there!

Not too many PA people are responding to the
post about bringing something...

Neither of us need em I dont think, but if you bring em and wanna sell em fro a decent price, I'm sure someone will take em home..should be near 30 TC's there this year. PM me with what you want for em and I'll try and get the word out.

Well I just registered today so I guess I will see everyone there. I won't be able to make it friday due to school but will be there all day saturday and sunday. I will respond to the "Whats everyone bringing" post and see what I can do.

Dont worry fella's, i got the banner covered. how do you want it? What colors ect.?

I'll be doing it before I leave, but after driving over 300 miles, I'll have to do it again. BTW, I assume

we'll parking on grass. Is it very dusty there or what? I'm just trying to figure out what I should take to keep the car looking good besides towels and detailing stuff.

We will be parking on grass. If it rains like last year..

.

Towels and detailing spray is good.

parkedcar - You've got free reign on what you think the banner should look like . All I ask is no pastel colors with pretty little flowers & butterflies

LOL !! Seriously , the color doesn't really matter that much to me , as long as it's easy to read and has all of the info necessary to let everyone know who we are . That way , any SVT reps that are strollin' through the field will realize that WE haven't forgotten about Ford's red-headed stepchild

, even if THEY have

.

wa2tuff - The field is grass with paved access roads . There's also a car washing area to keep that ride lookin' great each day (it's free , too ) . My ride in won't be as long as yours , but I'll be in the car wash area each morning , you car bet on that .

Just wanted to let you all know that i officially registered today. See you in a couple of weeks.

Awesome ... another victim

yea yea another one to teh list!!!!!!!

a few of my club members mite be showing up throughout the weekend as well

You should use the four colors that Ford used on the SVT Contours.

Just to let you know my Contour may not be there. I might have to represent in the Cobra.

That's a pretty good idea , John . The silver might be a bit hard to read unless you're right on top of it though

. I think read-ability is most important .

Bummer about Puff

. What's the hold-up thusfar ??

Clutch went already. Twenty thousand miles.

So I decided to put in a newer tranny while I was at it. Then it turns out the Fidanza needs a new insert so that's on hold.
So basically I haven't had time to get it to a dentless repair place, get my carpet installed, get new floor mats, install my interior, install and tune my Greddy, install my new brakes, new wheels aren't in yet, etc, etc, yada, yada, yada.

I thought you were selling it...

i registered. so the car wash is free there? is there a time limit.

John - Bummer you've got so much to do to the ride , man

.

The car wash is free , and is basicly an area that they've piped in a bunch spigots & hoses where you can pull your car up & fill your bucket (bring your own supplies , BTW) & wash your ride . There's no "set time limit" , but to be courteous , wash your ride & move it to dry it & stuff so everyone else gets a shot

. It's a pretty cool "perk" that they give ya .

Still thinking about it.
There's a 2000 Cobra R on Cars.com that's calling my name. Either that or an NSX...

Make the banner out of silver and do the writing in the other three colors.

Picked up Puff last night. DAMN does that SPEC clutch chatter!!!! I hope it runs better than it sounds...

Better break it in nice and easy for awhile. I'm planning to keep it under 3k for about 1k.

Please post and bring something for the BBQ!

.........oh....oh.......i'll bring brownies.

I'll bring something...uhm yeah

Off-topic but... If anyone sees Caleb Portis and his Silver Frost CSVT, can you steal his headlights for me? For sure he'll be there with his carclub.

Here's the guy that stole my money! (as an aside- nice car.)

MY headlights or MY money- I'll take either one.

*Mods* sorry for the rant- remove this if you feel it's inappropriate.

I wish this would get resolved

Well it looks like i will be missing it again this year. I pegged a deer yesturday and the car looks like ass now. If some one wants to stop in blairstpwn on their way 6out to pic up the banner that would be great. or we could arange to meet some where. Damn this sucks..

parkedcar - what about bringing out the IRONMAN ?? We wanna see you there ! Plus , we wanna see that sparklin' new banner

Well i think i might go anyway. I spent the money already. I just need some sudgestions as far as what to do to the SVT for the show. I hit the ironman and put a band aide on it but this is too much for that.
As far as the iron man...thats thing is getting pretty beat and looks like ass. I also dont know if it can be trusted for a 3 hour trip.

Had a good time seeing everyone and their rides.

Please post pics here.

I'm still hungover from the wedding I went to last night!
