GM Nationals at Carlisle

Who all's going to the GM Nationals at Carlisle this year? It's the weekend of June 25th.

Can't wait for good times with the GNISSC gang!

I might...

I wish...

ive never been to gm nats but ive been to the truck nats a few times and was going to go to the mopar nats but i traded my ram for my wagon. so we will probably make the gm nats. whats the weather like in june at carlisle?

We had pretty good weather last year. Only rained one day. I think it was in the upper 70's, low 80's..

There was a pretty good b-body turnout, I seem to recall there being 40some of us. But we need more wagons to represent.

Count me in. LMK if anyone needs anything while in town. I am the "local" guy.

Are any of the people on this forum listed as winners? I'd like to see some pictures of the winning vehicles from last year posted up.

Does ISSCA or a local club get 'group parking' for us B body nuts so we can park together?

Yup. Under GNISSO or something. We all park together.

Lookin more likely that I'll be making this cuz the ISSCA nats are in Louisiana this year!!!!

I'm in, just for Saturday though. When I register it asks for a club affiliation. So I just put GNISSO in there?

I'll be there with a local club guy (Al - V8Killer) on Friday evening sometime. Was gonna leave saturday night, but it was a 2 night minimum at the hotel so we'll leave sunday after breakfast.

I'll take the grille!

And I'll trade you outright...... but I get to keep my wheels [img]https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png[/img]

Great pics Tim. Nice placement of the wagon, looks fine.

Just got home, had a great time with all the other b-body nuts! Got a few pics, will upload soon. Thanks to the host clubs for the shade and a fun time, even with a "Mustang guy".

Today the Long Island Street Machines club put together the money to put my car on the dyno!!!!! What a blessing that was to me. Thank you to Scoob, Ian, Mickey, Bill, Joe, Roberta, and everyone that pitch a few bucks in the hat for me. I do not think anyone realized what a treat this was for me. The HP number where not what I wanted or expected, but know I have a bench mark to improve upon. What a great bunch!!







A cannot say thank you enough............. By the way..... notice the small mirrors, only 2 94' Impala SS's at the show.......

It was lots of fun and I'm sure going to try to go next year. I'll be taking a Cruiser next year though. There weren't many Oldsmobiles at all and ZERO Custom Cruisers.

I really had a great time. I only wish I coulda hung out with some of ya more than I had time to!

And when I first got there, I was cursin' PA and Carlisle up and down. I know. I'm sorry. It got better.

How much better, you ask?

THIS much better!




Oh yeah.. We did.


And how could it get better than THAT?








But it couldn't POSSIBLY get better than THAT. Could it?
























It could.


It was a most awesome trip.

Oh yeah... And there were some pretty cool cars there, too!








Carbon Fiber hood. Pretty cool!










And there were enough 5th gens to take over the world... Borrrring.

There were some really cool cars there and I had a great time. It was awesome hangin out with the guys and gals I only get to see a couple times a year. Parking lot festivities and go karts was a blast too!!!!

So even though I was cursin' Carlisle AGAIN when I first got there, I still had a friggin blast thanks to you guys! See ya next year!!!!!

Oh, the whole album (my measly 70 pics), can be seen here.

No problem, man! It was my pleasure. I have a hard time NOT showing that car off!

Everyone who went to the show, make sure you fill out the survey and mention how you're bummed out about our group being separated by class. Also be sure to suggest a wagon only class next year!
