The Saleen Club of America and Saleen have come together to host a display of Saleen N2Os and S121s as part of the North American MK1 Ford Focus 25th Anniversary at our event. This display will be a limited tent display for Saleen Focus owners and will feature 10 of them on display from their limited production years of 2004 and 2005. This focus on the Saleen Focus comes as many don't even know Saleen produced them. Saleen produced the N2O (named aptly for the Nitrous "Equipped" version) from 2004 to 2005 and the S121 version in 2005 only. A child of the "Fast and Furious" period of the early 2000's, the Saleen Focus models boasted an over-the-top body kit, upgraded suspension, TSW Revo wheels, Momo racing seats (2004 only), and even a Nitrous system in the N2O version, although it was not hooked up from the factory. These are rare "period-correct" cars from the tuner craze. 

Can't make it all weekend but want to be part of the fun?

More About the Saleen Focus

Mercury in the mid-1980’s was known for it’s dominance with the Capri in SCCA Trans Am Racing. Mercury took the manufacturers title in 1984 after winning 12 of the 18 races.  Because of this dominance, Mercury was awarded the sponsorship of the 1985 Detroit Trans Am race known a the Motorcity 100. Mercury took advantage of the racing success of the Capri and chose the Capri RS as the pace car for the race. It was to be stylized like the Roush Protofab SCCA Capris of 1984, receiving similar graphics and paint schemes.  Originally 100 replicas were scheduled to be built for the Mercury Motorcity 100 as dealer driveaway vehicle. However that number was cut down to 54 by the time of the driveaway program at the Motorcity 100.

This year at the Ford Nationals we are working with the group at MotorsportCapri.com to bring together a group of these super rare fox-bodies. Located in Building T will be the Mercury Motorsport Capri Reunion with potentially the largest gathering ever put together since the 1985 Mercury Motorcity 100. Additionally we will have some activities and guests surrounding this reunion.

When you think of 2008 Bullitt Mustangs, you typically think of the dark highland green (or as some call it Steve McQueen Green) color scheme matching the original from the movie. Of course, we all know there is the black option as well but did you know that there was a Torch Red Bullitt? Built at AAI as a 2007 GT manual coupe, this was the first prototype build used to verify the car performs as designed / engineered. The car came with an early version of AIS, a beta version of the exhaust, an early grill, some early chassis hardware, and a Bullitt faux gas cap w/ camo cover. The interior remained stock GT premium originally with tan leather seats with GT500 seats and steering wheel added later. There are no production “Bullitt” parts on the car, as they were all prototype tooled at the time. Later in life the prototype became part of the 2010 GT Track Pack development with Ford’s vehicle dynamics team and spent several winters in Arizona as a winter development car.  

Today, our friends at Hoondog Performance Group took delivery of the car through an agreement with Ford Motor Company. Current plans for the vehicle include featuring it at Hoondog events to assist in raising funds for their charities.

At this year’s Ford Nationals, you will be able to see the famous “RED” Bullitt as part of the Annual Ford Nationals Select Display in Building Y. Featured as one of the twelve to fourteen vehicles, this Ford prototype is sure to raise some questions. That said we encourage you to check it out in Building Y during the event weekend and speak with the caretakers at Hoondog Performance Group about it. We thank the team at Hoondog Performance Group for bringing it out for display.

Annually, the Carlisle Ford Nationals host a display dubbed the Ford Nationals Select. Launched in 2015, this display is positioned within Building Y and features 12-14 cars that are unique to the history of the Ford Brand. Each car will be numbered and receive a commemorative banner to mark their inclusion in the display. In addition, banners will hang from the rafters akin to what sports teams do, logging the history of the Ford Nationals Select.

In addition to the competition among the cars on the Ford Nationals NPD Showfield, there is a battle between clubs to see who has the most cars registered. Clubs that place 1st - 5th will receive a Hemmings Club Challenge banner and recognition on the Winner's List!

As a bonus, we offer the use of a 20’ X 20’ tent to those clubs who register 25 vehicles or more. These tents are a great place to take a break and they make a great club headquarters for the weekend. Larger clubs may be eligible for a bigger tent.

The Coolest Club award is based on the premise of your club tent being THE PLACE to be. Plan your theme and your decorations well for the show because there are a host of clubs vying for the honor.

At the Ford Nationals, the Coolest Club Hangout is sponsored by the Ford Performance Group and the winner is chosen by John Clor.

With the popularity of many Ford products from the likes of Roush, Saleen and Shelby it only makes sense that other companies would get in on the action as well!

Class 140 is home to those specialty built enthusiast vehicles. We are excited to see this class continues to grow!

We believe that one of the most honorable awards you can get at the Carlisle Ford Nationals is a Celebrity Choice Award. But do you really know what a Celebrity Choice award means? The deemed "celebrities" are notable people in our hobby, such as special guest, engineers who were the visionaries on the cars you love, to club leaders who make it their mission to bring people to the event each year. Getting a Celebrity Choice award is a true honor because that celebrity is picking one car out of the whole Showfield that means something to them. It's not the traditional judging, as there is no point scoring, but a personal reason behind why someone likes your car. 

Celebrity Choice selections takes place on Saturday of the show. Celebrities will walk the grounds to find that one car that gets their pick. You will know you are a winner right away, because there will be a special sticker on your car, as well as a document that notifies you that you won. Your autographed award will be available for pickup on Sunday!

The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds is a large footprint that can be a challenge at times, even for the most experienced attendee. 82 acres, 16+ miles of paved roadway, vendors and cars everywhere…it’s easy to understand how you may start wondering to yourself “where did I see that part or car I want to buy?” “How do I get my purchase from its space to my truck?” “How am I going to do this?” 

Never fear, because we’ve compiled a helpful list of ways that enhance your on-site experience at Carlisle! Thanks for joining us and enjoy your time at the show!

1. BRING CASH - The more the better. It’s hard to negotiate a deal without being able to pay.
2. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - It’s a lot of walking.
3. SUN BLOCK/DRINK LIQUIDS - You’ll be in the sun all day. It’s important to protect yourself and stay hydrated, especially if your weekend outdoors is your first prolonged exposure to the sun for the year.
4. REMEMBER THE SPACE - Take a picture of the space location or write it down. Every space at Carlisle has a disk to designate the space. Look down and you’ll see the space marker. Write down the letter and number. Don’t try to remember the space or the surrounding area. You’ll spend the rest of the day looking for it.
5. COME EARLY - Rare parts and great deals typically happen for the first person to find them. Set up day(s) and the first day of the event are for the serious shoppers.
6. ACT FAST - If you see a great deal, grab it. If you plan to come back later, it will probably be gone.
7. NEGOTIATE - It’s a flea market so don’t be afraid to make a REASONABLE offer.
8. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - Chances are good that you will find something you weren’t planning to find, so keep your eyes open.
9. LOOK EVERYWHERE - Even if you are looking for parts for your brand of vehicle, don’t walk past the vendor selling parts for other models or generations just because you assume there’s no way the vendor has what you want. Give their space a look too. They might not only have it, it may be cheap since it’s not what they typically sell.
10. USE THE CARLISLE EVENTS APP - Use the FREE Carlisle Events app to easily find your way back to a vendor (if you know the row and space). You can also use it to check activity schedules, register for other events, connect with fellow enthusiasts via social media, browse a digital copy of the event guide and more.
11. STAY LATE – There are always deals at Carlisle, but sometimes the best ones happen early on day 1 of a show, or late on its final day. Vendors are typically more willing to negotiate when they are packing up – especially large items.
12. BRING A SHOPPING LIST - Our memories aren’t as good as we think. Write it down. You can even make a list on your phone. Take pictures of what you need.
13. BRING A BAG, CART, ETC. - Parts will get heavy so have a way to carry your purchases. Ask the seller if you can leave heavy parts until later.
14. HAVE IT HAULED - Carlisle Events offers FREE* parts hauling. Keep that in mind if you’re looking at an engine, transmission, truck bed, etc.
15. FREE TAXI SERVICE – Need to get from point A to point B but don’t feel like walking it? Carlisle Events offers a FREE* taxi service. Dial 717-960-6429 to secure a ride. 
16. ASK! - If someone has parts for a vehicle but not the ones you need, ask if the seller has it. It might still be in his truck or at home. Even if he doesn’t, he might know someone who does.
17. KNOW THE VALUE - Do some homework on the parts you’re looking for so you know if the price is a good deal.
18. AVOID THE CROWDS - When you arrive, go to an out-of-the-way area to start rather than following the herd.
19. WALK IT ALL - Don’t miss any rows. The Carlisle Fairgrounds isn’t a perfect grid so make sure you hit every row and space.
20. ADVERTISE - Wear a hat, shirt or signboard that spotlights what you’re looking for.  It just might create a conversation, especially if what you’re searching for is obscure and/or rare. 

*While parts hauling and taxi service are free, donations are graciously accepted.  Donated money goes directly to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation.
