Arryn's banner says it all. Spent a fantastic day at Carlisle meeting a bunch 
of great V8ers, Tony H, Arryn, Dave C, Allan V and Scott P, talking to Keith 
and lot of other Audi nuts.

My hats off to the Pittsburgh ACNA and the 4000/GT coupe group from Audiworld 
who did a fantastic job of setting this up and promoting a friendly, open 
Audi get together.

On top of the Audis there was a ton of other stuff to see and talk about. BMWs 
from 1600s to M coupes, all sorts of British iron from TVRs, Triumphs, MGs, 
Jags and even the Rover V8 club, all two members.:-) There were Opels, 
Porsches and even a Fiero group with some serious iron tucked under their 
rear skirts.

If you wanted to see Volvos and Saabs this was the venue for it. I now know 
how europe felt when the vikings landed. There was also a Citroen group with 
about a dozen of the DS and SM models with the trick air suspensions. After 
seeing the 3 air bomb setup they have I will never complain about the bomb on 
the V8. 

Had a blast and hope to have the V8 running for next years show.
