Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Fellow members,

Some of us are still basking in the glow of Gathering Week 2022, but looking ahead, Corvettes at Carlisle is just around the corner at the end of August. Please look for details in the 60th edition of Heart of the Beast due out very soon. Meanwhile, I wanted to share a few nuggets for those of us that like to plan early.

1. Note that registration for Corvettes at Carlisle is now open at the following link: https://store.carlisleevents.com/Pro...ode=2022%2D024. When registering, you will want to use the ?Fun Field? option, and please be sure to select the ?ZR1 Net Registry? under the Corvette Club pull-down menu (sorry, no ?dash? in the club name). Remember that there is a club participation award, so the more we sign up, the better our chances to winning, as we have done in the past.

2.Thanks to Charlie Sinunu (dredgeguy), we have discounted room rates at two hotels in relatively close proximity to Carlisle:
a. Magnuson Grand Hotel (and Boomerang Bar), 110 Limekiln Road, Unit 2, New Cumberland, PA 17070: Rates are $70 plus tax/night for a single (Queen) and $80 plus tax/night for a double (two full size beds). Contact at Magnuson is ANNA; email address is frontdesk@magnusongradhbg.com and phone # is (717) 920-3627. Identify yourself as a ZR-1 Registry Member to get the discount of $15/night on the single or $19/night on the double.
b. Clarion Hotel & Conference Center, 148 Sheraton Drive, New Cumberland, PA 17070 (a little more upscale and across the street from Magnuson-Boomerangs): The ZR-1 Registry group rate is $119/night plus tax (including breakfast), which is a discount of $15-$30/night depending on the room booked. Contact at Clarion is SAM (SUND); email address is gm@clarionhotelharrisburg.com and phone # is (717) 774-2721. Note that they require SEVEN DAY CANCELLATION to avoid room charges if your plans change. As with the other option, identify yourself as a ZR-1 Net Registry Member to get the discount rate.

To help with planning and to enhance the chances of caravanning to and from Carlisle, we encourage you to post your plans. We hope to see a great turn out at Carlisle between Thursday August 25 and Saturday August 27. Look to the upcoming HOTB for more details.

I am booked at the MGH hotel (Boomerangs), Efnfast is also booked at the MGH hotel. Please post up when you book a room and let us know which hotel. MGH only had 16 singles and 6 doubles available so once we fill them the hotel is full, do not delay.
Clarion gave us a 15 room block to start that can be increased if needed.
Looking forward to cooking up some BBQ!

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Just signed up (thanks for the reminder). Thanks for making the room arrangements.
Thanks for setting up the Carlisle thing. Thanks for letting me play with you guys.
See you in Carlisle! Steve

Never been before, but I am planning on making the road trip this year from Chicago. Looking forward to the drive and praying for no breakdowns. I am booked at the Magnuson.

Departing early Wednesday the 24th. If anyone wants to caravan with me let me know.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I am booked at Boomerangs. Me and my buddy Keith (the tall man that put up the posters last year) will be there, Thursday thru Sun. See you all there. If anyone from Pittsburgh area is looking to caravan over from the west toward Carlisle on Thursday morning, let me know.

Update on room availability at MGH (Boomerangs). I spoke to Anna yesterday and we only have 5 double bed rooms and 7 singles left. If you are attending Carlisle and want to hang with our group after hours, sign up and let us know. Looking forward to seeing everybody.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Booked at Boomerangs.
Thank you Charlie for getting this set up again this year.
See everyone soon!
:cheers:

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I'm all booked up at MGH and will be coming up from SW Florida!

Been to Carlisle many times, but not recently, and never attended a Registry event. Thought I could make BG this year, but no dice.

I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great time...

Currant plan is to come up for a day with my father

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I should add that my wife Debbie is coming along and we'll be arriving Thursday and leaving Sunday.

We're also staying in Savannah a couple nights and visiting friends in Fairfax VA...kind of stretching it into a mini-vaca :cheers:

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Great to see high interest for 2022. I look forward to seeing everyone in August.

Just made reservation for Tom Allen and I at the Grand Mag Boomerang Bar. We have five Vettes between us. Tom says the freshly restored C2 vert needs a road trip. Quasar will be sad but will get over it. PS, Bob L., will it be ok if some seat bladders are sold and installed at our tent?

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Is there parking available at our Carlisle tent site?

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Great to see that you can make it, Steve. Yes, we can all park together if we sign up through the "Funfield" option on the Carlisle site and select ZR1 Net Registry under the Car Club tab. Everyone should sign up that way, not just to ensure club parking, but to enhance our chances of winning club participation award. Re the seat bladder question in your previous post, I'll email you about that later today once I get done with some morning meetings.

Thanks,
Bob L

What can you tell me about the downtown corvette parade? Worth the $30? Or it an August exercise of your cooling system?

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I have no experience with it, but I decided that I would rather watch the cars go by than sit in my car like being stuck in rush hour traffic.

Did it once, wasn?t bad, wouldn?t do it again. It?s basically a slower version of trying to drive into the show field

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Quasar, Tom and I are registered, reserved and raring to go.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

We just booked the last double bed room at the Magnuson hotel.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I spoke to the manager at MGH (Boomerangs) and they have 8 single rooms left and holding for us. Looks like we have 14 rooms booked so far, this is going to be fun. If you need a room, grab one now before they are gone.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Looks like we are going to have a better showing this year than last! Thanks Charlie for setting this up at the Hotel. Do you and Jim need anything for the tent? I can bring in some adult beverages for the coolers. See you guys soon.

Hi Anthony and thanks. We will keep you posted.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

It's been about 25 years since my last visit to Corvettes at Carlisle....really looking forward to it.

I've never had a car in the infield -- what's a good time to arrive? And, this is my first club event! If there's anything I can do to help out, please let me know.

John

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Hi John and welcome. Thursday when the show opens most arrive between 8 and 10am. We have parking in our area for all ZR-1 Net Registry members so you will not have any issues with parking. Looking forward to meeting you. I will be on the grill cooking.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Early. What I do, because I hate letting the car sit in traffic, is I show up the day before and just leave the car there

Promo code CAC22

well before the event. Drive right in!
No screwing around registering at the gate!

Don't forget to put ZR-1 Net Registry under club affiliation....

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

IMPORTANT

As of today, we have just 41 registrants for the ZR-1 Funfield. WE NEED 50 TO GET THE BIG TENT, so anyone on the fence about registering, please do so NOW so that we can get the magic 50 required to get the tent next to where we park. Rules have changed this year, so we can?t even pay extra to get the tent - WE NEED 50 REGISTRANTS BY JULY 11 JUST TO GET THE TENT. Carlisle is not at all tne same experience without tne tent from which to base our event.

When you register, be sure to register under the ?Funfield? and select ?ZR1 Net Registey? under the club pull-down tab to ensure you are counted in our numbers. You need to register under Funfield to park with fellow ZR1 owners.

Let?s go folks - time to commit!!!!!

Can I register my 1:25 scale 1992 Corvette? :wink:

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Now there are at least 42. I just registered.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

I just registered for the pulled pork sandwiches, now I have a to buy a car.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

We will feed you, going to make a special batch of pulled pork this year. Sure we can hook you up with a nice sorted Z!

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

The Z can be found. A lot of driver quality cars out there are overpriced. The super tight lightly used quality cars are bringing the bigger money. Don?t be afraid of a higher mileage well cared for known car. Charlie?s and mine are good examples of the latter.

Re: Corvettes at Carlisle, 2022
 

Quick update on the hotel situation:
MGH (Boomerangs) has only 2 single rooms left before they are sold out. We started with 22 rooms and 20 are booked. Our allocation of 12 rooms at the Clarion next door are all booked but they have a few rooms left and will honor our discount if you tell them you are a ZR-1 Registry member.
