I plan to be there!  Now just a matter of accommodations.

Most of the motels will probably already be booked.  You may be able to get a room cheaper in my area, I am going to look into some pricing within a few weeks for those dates.  Only downfall is that it's a little over an hour drive to Carlisle from my house, however, I do it each day of the show, and it's not bad.  Once I find some pricing, I will pass it on.  I did talk to a friend at Best Western in Lewisburg, and he quoted $125.00 a night, but that's in Lewisburg...also said he may be able to do better, but with Bucknell University and the US Pen in Lewisburg, pricing is normally higher.

My attendance is CONFIRMED.

I will be trailering my SHO to this event from my home base in the S/W Suburb's of Chicago. Looks to be an approximate 10hr drive.

I've booked a hotel in Mechanicsburg, PA. which is approximately 20min away from the show grounds / fields.

I will pre-register in January, after the Holidays (and their related expenses) come to pass.

So I'm get'n kind of excited now, even though this event is 6mo.'s out as of now.

Now that my upgraded turbo's have been installed, and my custom hard pipes are due to ship out this week, I'm hoping to get out to Livernois Motorsports sometime in January (2014) for a newly revised dyno tune.

Aiming for low to mid 500's at the wheels.

The staff over at LMS and I have discussed other upgrades (which I won't go into great details.... yet) but suffice to say, those will come as mod money allows.

In the interim, anyone looking for my most recently compiled mod list (as of Oct. 2013) feel free to check out the lengthy list here:

I hope to see others taking the time out to plan for this MAJOR, NATIONWIDE, FORD SPONSORED, event....

It'd be nice to meet up, spend some time together, etc. etc not to mention having a relatively decent turn out of any/all Ford Manufactured Vehicles, including lot's of fellow Ecobooster's!

Now, just throwing this out there for Friday night after the grounds close for the night.  Is anyone want to go "play", to  drag strip.  I know there is a little 1/8 mile place somewhere down there, or do you guys want to drive up to Beaver Springs up our way to a 1/4 mile track,  Friday night drags there are pretty interesting some nights.  Up to you guys.

Finally looked at emails this week.  Got this one from Carlisle about FORD national.  Look at the club piece.  Libtery SHO Club has never been offical registered.  Never knew they had them.  What are you thoughts on it.  Its earlier enough to do.

I think we need to decide what name to register under, so we all register under one name so we get a club space and everyone knows what name to use for the club. Don't care what name we register as, just so we have one, because I plan on registering in mid-January.

I'd be ok with any banner too, and vote for the Liberty SHO Club (SHO, Flex, F150, Fusion, all & one welcome).

I didnt know they had a contest for most car preregister or best looking club tent.  Might be hard to get the most, but would like to try to win the coolest tent part of it.

So, we are all going to register under the Liberty SHO Club?

It is starting to sound like that will be the case.

Me personally, I could care less who I register with, or under what club name.....

It may be of benefit though so that the event organizers can group us together however. Besides winning any club prize or what have you.

I think most members from other forum communities are planning to do so (under the Liberty banner).

I won't be registering until after Christmas myself. Likely in January sometime.

I have no desire to get placed in the proverbial dog house by the Mrs., for outlaying what she would say is "unnecessary" expenditures.

Lol.

Just point out her "unnecessary" expenditures.

I could try, but actually she's very frugal.

So I would be on the losing end of that commentary I assure you.

I am new to the forum and just ran across this, however i would love to try to make it out. I am in Fort Wayne IN and would love to meet up and travel out with anyone heading that way. Let me know.

I would also like to make it to Carlisle this spring.

I used to go regularly to the import/kit car (when I had an MG) and went a few years ago with my Mustang.

Everyone is welcome to join us, I will be registering shortly after Jan. 1st.
