The 2009 Carlisle All-Ford Nationals Coolest Club Hangout winner was the Yellow Mustang Registry. The Coolest Club award is based on the premise of the club tent being “THE PLACE” to be. The Yellow Mustang Registry put together a Hawaiian/Island theme, complete with a frozen daiquiri bar, yellow leis and yellow flamingos, that couldn’t be beat. Plan your theme and your decorations well for 2010 because there are a host of clubs vying for the honor.

Drag Racing 101 is a seminar, held on Friday, for those interested in taking a trip down the 1320 (in this case 660). Racing takes place at the 1/8 mile, NHRA sanctioned track of nearby Quarter Aces Drag-O-Way. Conducting the seminars will be a collection of drag racing’s most notable stars. They will teach the tricks of the trade that they have perfected over the years. It all starts on the Carlisle Events fairgrounds with a “chalkboard” explanation of terms, tricks and techniques required to have a good drag racing experience. Learning how to be competitive, for more experienced drivers, will be covered as well. Who knows, you may take home a trophy as the next drag racing star.

Another contest is for “Carlisle Cuties” – babies and toddlers up to age 3 – to dress to impress in their Ford or Carlisle themed apparel. Cuties will meet at the Grandstand on Sunday at 12:30; all participants will receive a toy and the cutie with the best outfit will win a $100 US Savings Bond.
