8-27-16 update.
Would like to say thanks to our ZR-1 Registry Club for the great time that I am sure was had by all.
Although it was hot, there wasn't any rain and we got through the heat.
We all had the opportunity to see members that we knew and get to know members we haven't seen before. A lot of activity going on, and also a lot of conversation among all of us.
I decided to take pics so that all of the members could enjoy looking at them, regardless of attendance or not. I took the pics just how it was and did not frame or worry about the lighting, etc. I wanted everyone to feel the experience as it unfolded.
The only pics that were posed, were that of members with and without their ZR-1's if they decided to participate to my request. Therefore not only could we put a face with their forum name, but also a pic of their ZR-1 from the back to checkout some of the cool license plates.
Enjoy the pics, they say a lot about the ZR-1 Registry.Net
DAY #1
Arrived here early this AM. The entire field fill up somewhat as the day went on. Had a very good showing at the ZR-1 tent. Saw some familiar faces from last year and meant some new ones today.
Charlie's pulled pork was unbelievable. The favor was spot on....
Had a mixture of sun and clouds, although it did get warmer as the day went on.....
Here are a few pics....hope you enjoy them......we get to do it allover again Friday....

In numerous posts to follow, I will attempt to post the pics of the forum members with and without their ZR-1's or themselves if requested. So hang in there with me, hope I get everyone straight. I just used first names and their forum name. If I missed anyone, my apologies as I tried to get members for pics when they arrived. If I get your name wrong or have forgotten, (even though I made notes....lol) don't hesitate to correct me.
Hope everyone enjoys the pics....they will start in the next post and they are not in any special order........

Ok, getting ready to post more pics now...
What I need from the members whose pic I took......if I don't have your name and or forum name above your pic, or the info is wrong....its either because I didn't take good notes, or I couldn't remember the correct spelling of your name, or that I'm just old and confused....I'm going with the last one......:)
So I would need those members to tell me what # post you are in and what pic you are in that post. I will then be able to do the edits. Also if your son or daughter, or a friend is in the pic, feel free to add their name.
I also took more random pics trying to capture a little bit more at Carlisle for the members who were not there, which will be posted after all the members pics are complete. Stay tuned!!! I enjoyed taking the pics on the fly and thankful that you are enjoying them as well.
Hoping everyone has safe travels to wherever their next destination takes them.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend......

Well people, that is just about it.....
Just wanted to let it be known, that although Carlisle is a great place to be for us Corvette lovers, it is not quite the same from the 80's. Yes a great turnout, but nowhere near the amount of people and Vettes that have been there in years past. Bare vacant spots you see on the hills and flat grounds with no Vettes, were always filled to capacity. Corvette parking for non entries is not what it used to be, also in the pics you can see the roadways in the vendors area, they would be packed shoulder to shoulder on both Saturdays and Sunday. You could hardly move from one location to another, I kid you not!!!
Sunday was always the day to be there, as they had the Corvette give-away and the bikini contest. and vendors stayed until the end, and you could get some great deals, back in the day!!!
Don't get me wrong, I am not downplaying Carlisle at all, I missed some years due to my work schedule, but we went every year since the first Corvette @ Carlisle in 1981, with the family.
My thought is that the people who were in their thirties back then (like me) are alot older now, (like me....lol) and the newer generation may not be as enthusiastic as we once were. Don't take me wrong I know alot of younger people are into Vettes, but alot of the older ones may not come to the show as they did years before. And us baby boomers have alot more population than the younger generations of today.
You also have the Internet, which makes buying parts, like we never even thought could be possible way back when!!!
Just my thoughts on the subject, but that doesn't stop me from going, Corvettes @ Carlisle is still one of the top Corvette shows to attend anywhere!!!
And on that note, hope you enjoyed the pics.....see you next time.......:dancing=D>

She said, "look at that, they are putting fingerprints on the car" I guess she has learned from me over the years......lol....lol

Your welcome Cliff, I enjoyed taking the pics, just looked and shot. Used my Samsung cell, which takes very good pics. Just tried to take pics through the eyes of everyone as you would have covered the fairgrounds. Of course the only posed pics were the members pics and they were a fast pose.......
I did not even consider taking any pics of the work that was done at our tent, as you and others already have that covered and you especially....:)
I am just happy that everyone here on the forum can get an idea of what Carlisle is like and just enjoy checking out the pics.......:dancing

Excellent work capturing a "sliver" of the event, Tom!! It was my first Carlisle adventure, and it was WELL WORTH THE EFFORT to make the long trip!!
WOW! I had never seen so many Corvettes anywhere! By Saturday our ZR-1 parking area was overflowing. It was, as several have said, terrific to get to see several people I've come to know on the Forum, but was able to put faces AND (some) cars with names was especially good.
I was in awe of several of the cars there - beautiful - inside and out. And, there's NOTHING like a paint job by Marc, but there was an (I'll call it 'metalized') aluminum-like high-gloss finish, and of course those powder-coated motors...ALL were spectacular...even impressed this old WARRIOR (i.e., not a waxer, ordinarily.
Tom, if you don't mind, I'll tag a few pix of my own onto your post so as to avoid people from having to jump around.
The Poster awarded to our club for the largest number of attendees of any club (pretty impressive achievement, huh?)

Jim Voter performed a plenum-pull "how to". The car was crowed around so that some had to peek between the "front-row" shoulders to get a peek at the goings on.
Here's Jim standing by his handy work. He did the plenum pull for free as a teaching demo. But, I asked him if re-assembly was included...or did he have to PAY for that! LOL!

Here's Charlie and Steve at main bar at the Clarion (VERY NICE) hotel (thanks, Robert DeMarco!!)
This was taken before the "Rusty Nails" had a chance to 'do their thing'; what followed wasn't pretty - but what do they say in Vegas? "What happens in Vegas....." Just (half) kidding. We had a great evening, and the dinner there was incredible!

Two very dear friends - nicer people you'd be hard pressed to find - Mike (aka Trippler) and his lovely lady Desilie (aka Riviera) (Truth-be-known, knowing they would be at Carlisle was a good portion of the reason I made the trek...to see them! Such fun people - you'd love to meet then if you haven't done so already...)

Last one (for now): Three of the four hardest working people without whom the gathering would not have been possible: Mark Horner, Dennis Fierstein, and Jim Voter. NOT to exclude Robert DeMarko from that group, but unless that is his chubby legs in the background, he wasn't in this one..

Also looking forward to the next WAZOO, as I have a small list of things to do whenever the time permits over many WAZOO get togethers. Hurst shifter, etc., etc. Nothing that need urgent attention. My 94 is running great...
Enjoyed our conversation Yun about the Muscle Car era!!!

1-I do not have the final count, but I would estimate on Saturday had to be 30+.

2-Go-Karts became a No-Carts....when Mark asked Friday evening if anyone wanted to go, the answer was a big no!!! lol We all seemed to be happy to stay put under and around the tent and we were treated to a pizza dinner from the club. Thank you "club board" for a delish pizza dinner:D

Well, actually Tom & Desi DID go over and do the Karts!
There wasn't enough ppl signed up to rent the track for the evening, but it was still open to the public and some did partake anyway. :cheers:

.............Jim Voter performed a plenum-pull "how to". The car was crowed around so that some had to peek between the "front-row" shoulders to get a peek at the goings on.
Here's Jim standing by his handy work. He did the plenum pull for free as a teaching demo. But, I asked him if re-assembly was included...or did he have to PAY for that! LOL!

The thanks go to Rod for allowing his ZR-1 to be used as the demo car.
My hope is that other ZR-1 owners (and potential owners) will understand that the LT5 is not an "untouchable" beast that is impossible to work on. As we know, many ZR-1 owners work on and repair their LT5's, and now, many owners have done major engine modifications. The ZR-1 is a great hobby car, with outstanding performance. And I can attest, also a great touring car.

Dennis, you disappeared into thin air....I guess when you have a ZR-1 like yours with those mods, that is exactly what happens.....lol

Paul thanks for the kind words. This was our first Carlisle too. We left on Saturday morning as Tripler very kindly allowed me to live out a childhood dream of going to Hershey. Stayed at the Hotel Hershey. It was amazing. Mike (Tripler) was kept busy giving people "tours" of our Z.

Well Wow is all I can say . It was a wonderful first time and I suggest anyone to make a strong effort to go and meet the other ZR-1 owners for next years event. Amazing bunch of guys and gals who have such enthusiasm for the ZR-1 . The cars were stunning and I am always in such awe of the LT5 and the C4 ZR-1.
Thanks Paul for the very kind words . I must say I do enjoy your story's of doing high speed runs . Wow . Your a madman . I prefer the circuit myself . You will have to come for a ride with me sometime and maybe I can get you hooked on circuit runs like Mark does ...

PS ,,,you guys missed out on some really fun but tough go kart tracking . I was sweating like crazy trying to keep up to a guy that goes there every week . He did a 19.230sec and my best was a 19.504sec . The fastest time on the circuit is 18.233sec . I was 7th fastest of the month . A few more trips and an 18 would be in the cards for sure . Go karts are completely different animals than driving anything else on the planet as far as I am concerned .
