Well it is over 6 months away, but I thought that Maybe we could try to get a slant six class int the "Fun Field" at the Chryslers at Carlisle Show for 2005 - Just like the Station Wagons now have their own seperate class.
- Any slant six powered vehicle would be allowed - any bodystyle/chassis

What do you guys think?

Would there be enough of you able to come to the show to warrant having a slant Class in the fun field?

I would certinaly like to try it.

BTW - Chryslers at carlisle is July 8-9-10 2005
- Carlisle is located in Centeral PA - 3 Hrs east of where the Pittsburgh Chrysler classic was held last year.

I would be happy to contact the carlisle folks if we want to do this.

Thanks.
Greg

Ive been to the last to mopars at carlisle, you see very few slants there maybe that would encourage more to showup?

That is the week before Clay City not a good idea to have races on back to back weekends...in my opinion.

Well it's actually more of a car show than a race. there is a drag strip nearby, But the big attratction is the car show - That is What I meant for this event - Sorry about any confusion.

I've been to MOPARS at Englishtown in May for the last 2 years as well. I got eliminated in the first round by an A100 truck with a V8 because I got flusterd when his tree started before mine. I had no idea that a V8 could have a slower dial than me.

I really hope so. I'm starting a new job on the 21st, that requires me to work every third weekend and another weekend day in between. If I am really lucky I'll be off that weekend.

Well here's where I am at with this;
If I get enough intrest on this thread, I will go and contact the people at carlisle and se if they can help us out.

I was thinking of at least 15 to 20 people / cars need to be intrested to do this.

There were a few slant there - but they are few and far between. I was there for all 3 days last year and say about 10. you have to keep your eyes open for them.

Would love to make a show of that caliber but it is not in the plans this year-- too far from KS, plus my cars are not exactly show type vehicles. I do however plan on attending the classic event in KC & the show in Topeka-- I just gotta watch mopars go down the track- no matter the ET !!!!!! last years Topeka show was great fun ,my son & I had a blast!!! Mike J was very kind & let my son check out his ride, never did get to talk to the road toad owner-- just gotta love those things!!!

I would like to attend. I doubt I'll spend more than one day if it is just a show and swap meet, but I'd enjoy seeing some other slant sixers.

My car ain't really much to look at. Will they even let it in to a show?
