I've been at Carlisle since Wednesday night. One of my cars is in the Invitational Display - a 1991 Crown Victoria CHP cruiser. I've been running around looking at parts and whatever, but I haven't found much. The weather was pretty good this afternoon. Hopefully, I'll get out to see more of the cars and trucks on display on Sunday.

Yo Ford,
I hope you got some time in at the show. It was nice that you called on your way down, sorry about not being able to meet you there. Speeding on the turnpike in my wife's car, wanting to get there early, and i got nabbed. Her car had been at the dealer while the manufacturer was deciding on whether to repair the engine or not, consequently she didn't renew her registration. They repaired the engine(goes fast), i put new performance meats on it (drives smooth), oops! forgot registration. $222.00 tow fee later i got home with lots of tickets. State trooper said if i hadn't been speeding he wouldn't have pulled me over. First speeding stop in almost thirty years, have been stopped for other things, but not speeding. Oh well, time to act like an old man on the turnpike (never drive fast on city streets). So now i'll have to wait until Bloomsburg Jamboree in July and the All Truck Nationals at Carlisle in August. Maybe hit a couple of gtgs in between. Yes the vehicles will be registered. AAAnnnddd get my suspended license renewed. The things i endure for my love of trucks.

Yeh tuf, last year i stayed for the whole weekend and there where a lot of vehicles, i think most people probably left early this year. i know there was a group of trucks fron the pa chapter of ftw there, i haven't checked posts to see if they stayed later or not. Bloomsburg 4x4 Jamboree is nothing but nice trucks and the All Truck Nationals have a lot. I like carlisle for parts. Hope we can hook up though at some gtg, sorry it wasn't that good for you today, normally there is a lot to see.

i'll have to watch out for the state troopers on the turnpike more too..
i'll definately have to head out to carlisle for the all truck show. it's the only place i know of around me that has a dyno. over the weekend i drove up to a friend's house in new hampshire to install some stage 2 injectors in my truck. talk about throwing you back into the seat and smoking like a freight train i guess the next step for me is to upgrade the high pressure oil pump and a larger turbo

Hey 96,
You have to take your truck over to the parking lot near Harbor Freight and see if it will smoke the tires.
