I'm really hoping that @CARBON_MAV will be there; it looks like he is fairly local to Carlisle. That Maverick is fricking awesome and exactly what I would like to do if I end up getting one in a couple of years.

It seems like the past few years I've hit rain driving in on Thursday, Friday is beautiful, Saturday is sunny and really hot, then Sunday is overcast with rain threatening.

Friday usually has a decent turnout, and probably the best day to hit the manufacturer's midway and swap meet. Saturday is always the big day with full classes and the event in full swing. It's a double-edged sword-Saturday will have the most cars to look at, but you're trying to hang by your...
