Default Re: Carlisle GM Nationals

I don't know of any great all Chevy shows anymore. I went to GM Nationals the very first year and was somewhat disappointed. We didn't go back until last year and were very disappointed. We spent the morning at Camaro Nat's and then headed to Carlisle anticipating spending the next day there. Spent maybe two hours and cut our losses and headed home that evening. My son is huge 4th gen Camaro guy and they had a GMMG reunion at the Camaro Nats so he was in heaven. Camaro Nat's was OK show but I don't know if it's worth the trip. It's next week and son wants to go, haven't decided yet.

I really miss the Super Chevy Shows from the 70's, 80's and 90's. The Indy show was really the crown jewel of all Chevy shows at the time. We also went to some in Columbus, Oh which were good for awhile. The last one I went to was in Columbus and we spent maybe 45 minutes there and headed to McDorman's show which was going on at the same time. For some reason other than the Mopar Nat's several of the shows at National Trail were a bust. I never could understand why the Columbus area never really drew the huge crowds to car shows like some of the other areas. I see the Super Chevy Shows have been revived and there's one at National Trail this July. I just wonder if it'll be worth going.

Maybe no one wants to go to outdoor shows anymore.
