Sheppd01 is right!

 

Last year was good, but this year is already shaping up to be better. Many more people have offered to help, and we are getting an earlier start on the whole planning process. Lots of excitement, enthusiasm, and ideas.

 

We are striving to keep the same structure (Summit Point / Carlisle) but to add new and different 'experiences' throughout the event.

 

Keep checking back to see what we are planning, as we aren't ready to share our secrets just yet!

To reiterate what Jester said....

 

When you register, you want to pick "2017 Carlisle Ford Nationals Show Field". There will be a 'drop down box' asking for your Club....BE SURE to select Team Shelby!!!!

 

Carlisle keeps track of how many people register with each club, and there are benefits to the clubs with a higher number of registered attendees.

 

If you intend to participate in the Saturday evening parade to Downtown Carlisle, that is a separate 'drop down box' on the registration page.

 

Also keep in mind that much of the Team Shelby East Coast Grand Nationals will take place inside the Carlisle Fairgrounds. You will need to register for the Carlisle Ford Nationals to enter the Fairgrounds.

 

Attendance for the Team Shelby East Coast Grand Nationals will require an additional registration at a later date. We will open our registration as soon as all the activities are finalized and costs determined.

 

We are working on some very special additions to this years program....things were have never done in the past at Carlisle.

Nitrous Express:http://www.nitrousexpress.com/

 

Wow, how do I start to tell the world why NX is different and better than any other company? Let’s start with the NX philosophy:

 

All components must be of the highest quality, no off shore junk!

99% of NX products are produced and assembled in the USA!

All NX components and systems must be tested and proven before they are shipped to any customers!

All horsepower claims must be accurate and dyno proven at the wheel!

NX copies no one; we lead the industry in technology and innovation!

Never be satisfied with the status quo!

Always give the customer more than he expects!

 

Now let’s get to who NX really is, I’m Mike Wood. I own 100% of Nitrous Express and have been involved with the nitrous phenomenon since 1978. I started with a small NOS (Nitrous Oxide Systems) nitrous kit on my TransAm. I thought this is the greatest thing since the invention of the automobile! Soon thereafter I installed a NOS direct port kit, or fogger as NOS called it, on my racecar. It was cool but I experienced multiple issues right out of the box. Out of necessity I got involved with the science and hardware used with nitrous oxide. I soon discovered many opportunities for improvement in the current nitrous kits offered, corrected them and earned a reputation of being the “Go to Guy” if you wanted to run nitrous. This was pretty easy, in 1979 few people in the racing world had even heard of nitrous. At that time, there were only a couple of companies that made nitrous kits, the most common being Nitrous Oxide Systems or NOS. NOS was so dominant in those days that many consumers still refer to nitrous oxide as nos, noz or even nos nitrous.
Through the 1980’s and early 90’s nitrous jetting patterns and tune-up information were hit and miss at best. Out of necessity, I set up a flow bench to precisely measure the amounts of nitrous and fuel used by each nitrous kit. The information learned during the flow testing was invaluable. Before I knew it, I was modifying and hot rodding almost every part of every nitrous system I used and/or sold to my fellow racers. (See there website for the rest of the Nitrous Express philosophy)

Man! This is I'm my back yard. Close enough that I don't need a hotel. I'm going to talk to the wife and see if she'll be my date for the weekend. ;-)

Good job on getting the sponsors Justin.

[Bruce2009KR]

I'm excited to participate in both, the Summit Point visit, and for the first time, Carlisle too.

 

Are many of you exhibiting your cars though? I'm a bit confused on that as they say you must commit for three days. And, ignorant as I am; will the Shelby's be inside under cover or outside in the elements?

 

Thanks in advance.

[sheppd01]

You don't have to commit to anything unless your car is in one of the featured displays.

 

You can come and go as you please..... spend all day at the show.... drive to your hotel for the night and put it under a cover

[ShelbyEra08]

I wish i could participate in the festivities, but i got a letter the other day that i need to have my car in Carlisle on Thursday, June 1st. My car will be in Building T for the 50th Anniversary GT500 Display

That's great! I know a few Team Shelby members were interested in being part of the display, but couldn't give up their car from Thursday until Sunday because of all the other events going on.

 

You still could just sign up for the Carlisle portion of the event and join us for everything we have planned on Friday afternoon/evening and all day Saturday and even after the downtown parade.

I was able to book both hotels today.

All set!

You need to preregister for everything....

 

Hotel rooms in WV and PA can be reserved now.

 

You can register for Ford Carlisle now, which you will need to do if you are joining us in PA. Be sure to include the Saturday night parade and indicate your group affiliation is Team Shelby.

 

Track registration and the overall East Coast Grand National registration will open shortly.

 

What other questions can I answer for you?

[Bruce2009KR]

Z-Man, I should have been more clear; I HAVE registered for all at Carlisle, it's the Summit Point day that I was asking about. Is there a link to register for track day? Thanks.

 

Bruce

[sheppd01]

Sweet. It will be nice to see a black KR at the track.

Bruce are you down by Fredericksburg, VA? If so we may have met a few years ago.

[MarcSpaz]

I'm wondering the same thing... Thanks.
