Get there EARLY is good advice!
Use the map feature on your phone to find the "secret
routes" to gate 3. Avoid the main routes, Rt11 etc., look for side streets etc.
South and North Pitt St is a good example, it parallels the main route, Carlisle Spring Rd and Clay St from downtown and has little traffic. It ends right across the street from gate 3 on the round-a-bout.
If you don't mind some dust on your car, there's the back gate (#?)
it's off Calvary Rd near the PA Trnpk overpass. Calvary Rd is a right turn off Rt11 just as you're entering Carlisle from the East. You'll need your windshield
sticker and some of it's a dirt road but it brings you out at the top of the hill
near the Registry's tent (if it's located where it usually is) Pretty much you're guaranteed no traffic any time going in this way...

Looks like I'll be able to make Saturday after all, will be my first CaC. Won't be bringing the ZR-1 most likely though, not road legal at the moment among other things. Hope to see some of the registry members there!

First day early is very little traffic. later in the event, mid day and later you'll be sitting for a while. I'm not a morning person, nor is my wife so we just leave the car at the field. Works best for us is all.

Signed up today, so you can add 1 more. Me and my Admiral will journey up on Wednesday. It's been a few years since I've been to the Gathering and this will be my first Carlisle. Looking forward to meeting many of you

Did we make 50?

ZR1North · 07-12-2022

ZR-1 Net Registry members rock! We made the minimum 50 registrants by the July 11 cutoff date. In fact, we got to 62! That qualifies us for the larger 30 X 20 tent in the funfield next to our designated parking area.

Now we can look forward to a great event at Carlisle Aug 24-27. Let's hope for great weather.

Thanks to everyone that registered. I look forward to seeing everyone in late August.

It will be nice to see everyone. Is that a bigger tent than we had last year?

Can we get some air conditioning this year....

Cant wait for my very first Corvettes of Carlisle event! How did I ever stay away for 40 years? I'm REALLY honored to have my Z included in the Callaway display for their 35th anniversary, we have to even out those TT iron block cars. :-)

Looking forward to seeing other members Z's and putting user names w/ faces. safe travels everyone!
