Heard there will NOT be peer judging this year.

Supposedly the show cars entered are going to be judged by actual judges this year!

[SpartaPerformance]

I'M DOWN!!! I already scheduled that time off from work. :D

[Blackened300a]

Wow, usually January I spread the word. As usual, the tent, t-shirts, trophies, bbq, raffles, giveaways, and maybe something new for this year. ;)

[Krytin]

I got the email notification and the December extra discount is worth a mention - every dollar helps!

#9202 here.

Here's the link to register online.
http://store.carlisleevents.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode =2011-027

Make sure you put MercuryMarauder.net as your car club, 183, is 2003-2004 Mercury Marauder class. I
If you are Supercharged, put Modified, NA, put Stock.
We will all be parked together either way. It just spreads the trophies around if we get a big enough turnout that they have to split the class for us.

Come the end of January Ill be putting a big push for hotels and getting this event together.

Just saw that there is a multi-car discount. $5 off for two cars. :up:

[Ms. Denmark]

Just saw that there is a multi-car discount. $5 off for two cars. :up:Then Gordon should bring his too!:D

[Ladyhawke]

That's the plan. I'll register tomorrow by phone for both of us.

Do we have a special code for the Hampton Inn? Connie called and they are booked for 6/3 already.

[Ms. Denmark]

That's the plan. I'll register tomorrow by phone for both of us.

Do we have a special code for the Hampton Inn? Connie called and they are booked for 6/3 already. No special code. :( I talked to Connie a few minutes ago. You have to book 2 nights! They do have some rooms available (no 2 bedded rooms). So Jack and Connie got a room for Fri and Sat and so did we. (But Eric is thinking we may stay in Maugansville at about $150 less. We'll see.);)

[Ladyhawke]

We have our room for Friday and Saturday. Our room rate was $161 with AAA. How much are you paying to be $150 less in Maugansville?? :dunno:

[Ms. Denmark]

We have our room for Friday and Saturday. Our room rate was $161 with AAA. How much are you paying to be $150 less in Maugansville?? :dunno: 2 nights in Carlisle comes to $351.20. 2 nights in Maugansville with their special week end rate comes to $200 + tax. Don't forget Mr. Man's Scottish background. ;)

Sorry guy, have the Mrs for for this one. :coolman:

Maugansville, MD is 50 miles one-way from Carlisle, PA. With 2 cars for 2 days, gas alone will eat up about 1/2 your hotel savings. Plus it is an extra hour each way in the morning and evening. Seems like alot of inconvenience and time. You'll also miss out on the canopy parties .... but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do. :rolleyes:

What hotel do most people use in Carlisle?

[Blackened300a]

What hotel do most people use in Carlisle?

Theres a Hampton Inn right off of the PA turnpike or the Hotel Carlisle. Both are within 3 miles of the fairgrounds.

[Haggis]

We are booked in the Hampton.

Last year most people stayed at the Hampton Inn. I am booked at the Hampton Inn again this year. Others were at the Hotel Carlisle a couple blocks away. A few folks were scattered elsewhere. Here are the websites for both ....

[rayjay]

We are in & paid for at the Hampton. Saved $27 a night by prepaying. I should be in good enough shape to make the drive by then, otherwise the Beep will be at the wheel. BTW, no two bed room available. Brittys on the couch.

[HammerDown]

stay at the hampton--charlie's right, the gas cost will even out the higher room rate and less wear and tear on car, not to mention the longer drive each way. (Won't be the same if you're not there!!!)

[HammerDown]

2 nights in Carlisle comes to $351.20. 2 nights in Maugansville with their special week end rate comes to $200 + tax. Don't forget Mr. Man's Scottish background. ;)

Fordfrk also has the Scottish background, but I didn't tell him the cost. Since he doesn't post, he won't find out till it's too late!!:P:D

[vkirkend]

Booked at the Hampton this time!!!:banana2:

[Mr. Man]

But seriously, you're preachin' to the choir. We just gotta convince He Who Must Be Obeyed! :P

Ray, you still might come out ahead. If I understand correctly we nned to book a certain number of rooms as a club, in order to possibly get a discounted nightly rate. How many rooms need to be booked .....I don't know. Maybe Fast Merc has that info????? The AAA rate I got was 161/night. "Denise" @ the Hampton said there is currently no standardized discount rate for our block of rooms.

[SMOKE]

OK PEOPLE I KNOW A GROUPE! Is staying at the Hampton I checked with Jacky today and other than myself 1 other is on the list...

The other should be me....made sure I mentioned the "Marauder group" in particular and got the negotiated rate....

Phone calls to the hotel over using the Web could/should've worked...

[rayjay]

I had to prepay, no refund, to get the rate I received, and, there were no double rooms available. There may still be some for the club. I used the net to register. So Brit has to sleep on a hide a bed, oh well. If she does't come, we have a party suite!
