[COVERAGE] Carlisle Performance & Style ’14
May 20th, 2014 by Elusive Media
Carlisle Performance & Style has always been the show to kick off the season and the time to show off those winter projects everyone has been so eager to unveil. The 3 day show starts off with a cruise-in, car showcase, drifting, autocross, and a low car limbo; while the rest of the weekend adds Ms. Carlisle contest and the popular burnout contest. With over over 15,000 enthusiasts that came as far as Canada, there is plenty of cars and vendors to keep you busy all day long. As past years, this weekends forecast wasn’t the best. Passing dark clouds on Saturday miss the fairgrounds for most of the day. But as part 2 of Ms. Carlisle was about to start, the clouds let out a heavy down pour which last a good 20-30 minutes. Thankfully we had break in the storm to let burnout continue just long enough before the second round of rain would hit. Rain doesn’t damper the show, it just gives you some more opportunity to check out the rides in all the buildings!
As i mentioned above about Performance & Style being the kick off show of the season, well this year it will be its last. Don’t worry tho, it’s just changing dates! For the 2015 show, mark your calendars for July 17-19. I’m sure this will be a good move for the show, as it has always been on Mother’s day weekend and with a younger crowd, students are just just finishing up with finals. I’m looking forward to a huge showing next year!!
