Just a quick shout out to all the Gentlemen( I use that term loosely.. bwhaha) and their Ladies who were at Carlisle this weekend. It was awesome to finally meet some of the regular forum members! I have been part of some car clubs, and I will say without a doubt, the SHO community is the most welcoming group I have ever met! Stoked to see everyone next year, and hope to spend a bit more time as I did leave early both days (as mentioned, being respectful of my old man's needs) to be part of the after party fun.
To everyone who thinks about going but doesn't, you really should! Its a blast at the Mustang Ford Nationals! And being able to meet all these guys face to face is worth it.
Until next year! (And it will take a year for my rear end to handle another dead pool hug)
Finally glad to place a face with the forum user name there SBS / BJ SHO.
More than happy to welcome you into the fold. You took the hazing well and I too look forward to next year.
Always a great time, and surprisingly no rain during each day and what rain did come, arrived overnight. So Mother Nature was watching over us for sure.
Thanks for being a great sport!
Cya next year. :thumb:
My dad has always wanted to go to this. Maybe next year he and I will come down in the SHO and ecoStang
Don't make it a "MAYBE" make it a DEFINITIVE!!!!!
We are currently blocking out 10 rooms for next year, at the Holiday Inn Express (1152 Harrisburg Pike, Carlisle, Pa.)
If we reach 20 rooms, a discount will be extended to all of us. LMK.
It was a pleasure to spend time with both you and your dad...however, use the term old man a bit more conservatively...after all I have him beat by 5 years.....
Hope you guys can both make it and hang with us next year, it was a pleasure to spend time with another guy who understands the Ecoboost platform and is doing things correctly!

Ha! I used the term "old man" as an endearment.. possibly because it's been a running joke between my dad and I for sometime....
I will however use it more conservatively :-)

I call my dad the old man all the time (he's 62 hope I don't hurt feelings) haha. But on the flip side he calls me Jr. even though im not a Jr. So its all good

thanks for pics Z. nothing unusual about no sho pics, just like with my local ford club, the red headed step child of ford. but still my opinion the test mule for the 3.5eco hooked to the 6f55 tranny to make sure was ready for the big time in '11- F150. some ford guy either had an old SHO or knew somebody who did & thought what better way to test the combo by putting them in a taurus & call it a SHO & let those crazy SHO guys try to break her. then they got the thought, let add the ptu & make her awd. they'll tear it up for sure. a test mule in my mind but for those of us who took the chance back in '10 what a reward!!!

It was a please meeting BJ and Coach Buzzcut for the short time they were there along with the rest of you who made it out. Agreed, very welcoming group and I definitely plan on coming back next year. I will be registering for the parade but thanks to Mark for letting be ride shotgun since I didn't this year.
