Chris, Glad we could bring some American cars to SP!! I'll be bringing my Kona Blue '12 Boss to the event. It is currently having a little work done to be sure it is ready to go. I might hit Shenandoah with PCA in April to see how the car behaves of hit the FATT session before this Shelby event. Hope to meet you at the track. You will love the Boss - it is an amazing machine.

eagledriver Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Update: It seems that we are getting a huge surge in the final weeks before the event. Tickets and hotel rooms WILL be sold out before the event so if you haven't already done so than you need to book them now! This is going to be bigger than what I ever imagined. Speaking with the event planning staff this week and items are nearly complete. This will be THE must do event on the 50th tour. We will have cars there that you will not see in one place at one itme again until the 100th of SAI Carlisle hotels book fast and early for 30 miles in every direction for Ford weekend. If you don't book at the host hotel now (before they sell out) and think you can get a room at the last minute than you will be sleeping in your vehicle. Carlisle becomes the 4th largest city in PA over Ford weekend. 3,000 owners ( and their guests),500 vendors, 100,000+ spectators over the 3 days.

FILF Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hi everyone, first time posting. Is anyone else having a problem booking the Winchester Marriot Courtyard hotel from the Team Shelby 50th webpage. I'm clicking the link which brings me to the Marriot website and then it tells me that the group code is not valid. I went through the regular Marriot website and booked a room there for the same price so I guess its a non-issue but I was just curious. Hope Team Shelby didn't abandon this hotel! BTW - Anyone else staying here on Thursday night? Thx - Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome aboard! Remember to book at the Radisson for Carlisle too. See you in June! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FILF Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Thanks for the info. I already booked the Courtyard without the group rate which was actually the same price or if I prepay it saves $10 dollars. I booked the Radisson a few weeks ago. Only thing left to purchase is the celebration package from Shelby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustangcollector Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 500+ vendors at Carlisle??!! Oh my, I better bring a wad of cash! ...and a put a tow hitch on the car to carry all the stuff back in a trailer! BTW, I received email confirmation as well, but no package. I think John Keller told me that packages would be sent out about two weeks prior to the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT50040th Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Wow, the Shelby 50th Celebration East sure has gotten some serious momentum, we are close to selling out. An update email will be going out next week to all registrants. Your PayPal receipt is your conformation for now and you will get your cardentuals when you register at the event. Only 7 more weeks to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagledriver Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 John and team are in "final detail" mode at this point. I can't even begin to explain how involved this event is. A thousand different individual items that have to be coordinated and re-coordinated to make everything appear seamless. As John stated look for an email next week containing details and answers to questions you may have. When you purchased your 50th package you were sent an email receipt. This email receipt serves as your initial confirmation. Your credential package will be given to you in person when you check in at the event. Everyone who purchased a package will receive the detail email and FAQs next week. To answer a few of the latest questions: - YES there will be PLENTY of trailer parking at the Radisson. If every single owner brought a trailer to the Radisson there would still be parking left over. They have a convention center on site. Since we have the entire hotel that weekend the convention center is not-booked. We will be using the adjacent secure convention center parking for the trailers. This hotel is setup for Carlisle Events- Ford weekend, GM weekend, Corvette weekend, etc... They are used to having 150+ trailers parked over a weekend. This is a very nice area and there will be no issues with unwanted "visitors". Virtually every single conceivable scenario has been thought out and planned for. The Northeast region wants you to have a fantastic time and be a part of the 50th anniversary tour of the one of the greatest automobile manufacturers of all time. Please be patient just a little bit longer. The email next week will answer most questions and allow you to relax and "enjoy the ride"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneekysnake--sss Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Another ?. While we are driving in the parade are we allowed to toss candy to the kids....because it will help the kids that are drooling over all the Shelby's that come roaring into town.
