Day 14 (Carlisle Pennsylvania)

Corvettes at Carlisle has become a summer tradition for my father, grandfather, and me. Each August we go to Carlisle Pennsylvania to see the collectable corvettes, get new information on corvettes and sometimes we even bring our own corvettes and show them off. The largest and most fun-filled Corvette event in the world features more than 5,000 Corvettes representing all generations of America’s classic sports car. Corvette enthusiasm is contagious with participation in autocross, dyno testing, burnouts, and the parade through historic downtown Carlisle. In addition to the Corvette giveaway, the excitement continues with an incredible shopping experience, including a huge swap meet with a wide variety of vendors, an all-Corvette car corral, Manufacturers Midway and Installation Alley. Everything that a corvette car owner may need; from car care kits to missing parts for barn finds. Everything can be found at corvettes at Carlisle.

Before I went to Corvettes at Carlisle my dad and his dad went. This is where they found out about the 50th anniversary edition vehicle and where they first ordered it. Each year we go together and experience corvettes and the other people in the corvette family. This is where corvette truly earns the nickname Americas Sports Car.
