For any of you still considering this opportunity, there is some additional meet-up info you should follow. George still plans to summit the mountain along with any other takers and his itinerary as follows: DEPARTING FROM THE TROLLEY SQUARE COMFORT INN ON RT. 7 IN RUTLAND, VT. @ 9AM HEADING UP TO K...

Great suggestion on the Long Trail Brewery. Definitely a possibility. George was in Vermont over the 4th of July weekend and returned with some additional information in regards to accomodations. They are as follows: HI ! GOT FOLLOWING RESV. INFO. WHILE @ VT. 4 THE 4TH ! 8/26 - FRI. RATES FOR 10-12 ...

For those of you who are interested, this Mount Washington trip was suggested this year at Carlisle. It involves a drive to the summit of Mount Washington (the highest peak in the northeast - 6,288 ft.). This trip is laid out to attend the August 28th Sunrise Drive, which would allow us to access th...

yea, the entrance to that bus stop is interesting, i think your reaction to hitting the cone was a little more vocal than mine was haha

your car looks really smooth, probably a much stiffer suspension than my practically stock setup - maybe someday i'll be able to afford something stiffer

Here's some in-car video of my three runs from Heat 2. Enjoy

I'm in for the Carlisle autox... I'll be doing a few come the spring with the NNJR group that meets up at Englishtown - they do both the parking lot and the road course there.... lots of fun. Hopefully by the time Carlisle comes around I'll have a few more toys on my XR to help get my times down a b...

Hey all - here's the results from the autox to go will all the great pictures! It was a blast! I don't know which ones weren't Merkurs so I left all of them there.

Hey all - It was a great Carlisle this year - even the rain held out (until the ride home to make it treacherous). Anyway, below are a few photos I took over the weekend. http://img362.imageshack.us/img362/9052/cimg1889xy5.jpg http://img361.imageshack.us/img361/4663/cimg1888kc6.jpg http://img399.ima...

Once again the Carlisle name strike again.

Sipping my orange juice down here in Orlando, Fl, the final sip revealed the brand of the plastic cup... CARLISLE.

dun dun dunnnn....

Even in Florida you can't get away from the impending greatness of C2K7. I will be in Orlando, FL until Thursday before the Carlisle weekend, flying home that Thursday, and driving to PA on Friday. Lucky for me I did all of the preparation week BEFORE vacation. http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/333...

it most absolutely did... and after asking the old man (who happens to be username "Merkur") if it was possible for that to be a problem in the future the assuringly shook his head and told me "no." Because of this, he put both mine and my girlfriend's lives at risk... i'm just l...

reprimand my old man.. he told me to put it under XR4Ti

mhamilton - thanks for your reply... it would be much appreciated if (as of now) you could bring them to Carlisle

EDIT: I would like to let everyone know that it would be easiest if someone has this piece in Rosso Red.

Hey all - Recently my control arm ball joint came undone while driving, resulting in the slamming of the front left wheel into the back of the wheel well. SO - if anyone has that body piece just behind the front left wheel that would be great. Delivery at Carlisle would be preferable... please let m...

You must be out of your mind! prom instead of carlisle? I'm a friggin girl, I was very hyped about prom when I was in H.S (6 ...
