2016 Ford Nationals - Carlisle, Pa

[markssho]

I wanted to get the discussions started regarding this years event.
If your interested, come on out, it's a sight to behold. 6/3/2016 - 6/5/2016
I've registered with Liberty SHO club. The more folks that pre-register, the better place we get on the field. With enough, we (entire class) also get a tent.

Reply here if you can make it this year.

Register under LSHOC (or Liberty SHO Club), hopefully get enough attendees to get space to pitch a tent!

I'll be there Friday and Saturday but still debating on registering the car, it's $8 cheaper to register but then i have to drive around to gate 3. I normally come in the back way and park just outside gate 7 (good cheap food right there). it's also closer to the parts vendors so i don't have to lug the parts for my other cars too far back to the SHO.
Staying at the Holiday Inn Express in West Harrisburg (waited too long to book my room).

Just a thought,  would any of you guys going to Carlisle,  would like to do some dyno pulls.  I'm going to a shop, off I81, close to the show field.  I can can ask what a group rate would be and how many would they need to commit.

I would say good luck finding a mobile awd dyno that can mechanically link the front to rear

The mobile dyno on the show field is 2wd, has been for years, but bamsho is talking about a shop close to the show field which would support awd.

The AWD dyno operator is more than willing to do dyno pulls for us on Friday.  More than likely in the afternoon, I would just need a good commitment for people to give him a head count and rough price for us.  He really did like the SHO too.

I'm hoping to make it there this year and I'll look for fellow SHO owners!

I missed the last couple years for various reasons.

Definitely an awesome event,added a POLL on TOP of the PAGE and thought it would be cool to see how many members are attending this years event.  Z

Just a heads up if anyone here is going to FORD Nationals this year with there SHO or MKS.  Kirk posted on Facebook, that any of the Ecoboost SHO owners need to be in the SHO area of the showfield by 10am.  He said that there are couple guys from FORD Racing coming to take about coming parts.  Interesting since FORD killed the Taurus and the SHO, or did they?  Should be interesting for sure.

Well they're a little late to the game don't 'ya think?

I mean, 6yrs into the platform, & they're just now stepping up to the plate?

Don't get me wrong, better late than never, but I would be hard pressed to expect they'd have much to offer, in relation to what the aftermarket vendors have already captalized upon.

I suppose it'd be interesting to hear nonetheless.

I'd be in favor of a hardened/built trans option, along with upgraded half shafts, ptu, maybe even some form of retrofit for the 2nd HPFP as employed in the newest GT.
