Hello All,
I will be there Saturday as a Guest Judge and will be on the lookout for a Third Gen to give my award to. I know the Camaro Nats is the same weekend in MD, but for those of you who haven't decided on which one to go to yet, PLEASE try to attend Carlisle.
The Carlisle Staff has been doing a PHENOMENAL job refining this event since it began as it was previously the GM Nationals, and it's considered one of the best in the country (Chevrolet brings their cars and Engineers here for a reason and last year there were over 1500 GM cars and trucks in the show field!
Unfortunately the Third Gen turnout isn't as large as the other Gens, so I'm putting this out there to hopefully entice my fellow Third Gen Owners to show up.
For those of you who are not familiar with the Guest Judge Award (Carlisle calls it us Celebrity Judges), Carlisle invites a group of people to attend a luncheon and then immediately after pick ANY car from the show field to AUTOMATICALLY WIN an award for whatever reason that particular judge finds to be worthy. This is NOT a scored or points based judging, but totally subjective based on each persons criteria. I look for original and survivor Third Gens but others look for custom and modified and not just Camaros. The Chevrolet Camaro Engineers are judges as well, and if you ask me getting an award from one of those guys (and girls) would be better than any award I got from checking off the scorecard boxes. And since there's only about 30 or so judges looking at the ENTIRE field, this award is even more desirable to shoot for. Its one award per judge and one award per car.
IMHO this is THE award to get because you're not trying to beat any other car or criteria and youre not outclassed by the best of the best in your category. Last year I gave my pick to a BEAUTIFUL 89 IROC and I can GUARANTEE that as long as there is at least one SUPER CLEAN and ORIGINAL Third Gen in the field, that car will be getting my award. If not, I'm going to where it all began and picking a First Gen because there never a shortage of those. I'm hoping some of you will bring your cars there and make my job a little more difficult.
If anyone is attending, let me know.
My pick from last year: John Monteleone 1989 IROC. You can see the award sitting under the hood. Perfect size plaque is easy to display and store in the car AND you also get a small sticker on the windshield if you dont want to take the actual award to shows.
The threat of rain kept me away. Look forward to getting there next year. Was hoping to meet some fellow Third-Gen owners. Steve86TA----I was planning on stopping by your section. I'm still looking for a driver power door if you have one.
Another year in the books guys. It was great to see all the familiar faces and continue to help you guys and girls with your projects. It was great to meet a lot of new faces as well this year. If you asked for something that we did not bring, please don't hesitate to email/text or PM me. I will get it pulled and send you some pics ASAP. We are continuously picking up cars & parts.

No worries, PM me I'm sure I have something for you
We fair-ed pretty well at the AX shootout. My son won the event. It was a good battle between the top 3. Tyler Hawkins was originally set at 3rd but hit a cone on his qualifying run. I think I was last in my 4th gen. lots of things to do to it before I can compete with these guys but was still a blast to drive!
Heres the top 3. My sons winning 2nd gen.

Steve, Looked at your stuff Friday. I need the plastic bezel that holds the cig lighter in a 93-96 console. Have one in good shape?
The rain certainly put a damper on this years event but we were still fortunate enough to have some really nice Third Gens attend. Even though there weren't a lot of cars (due to rain) the ones that were there made it difficult for me to decide. In the end, this was my pick for my Celebrity Judge Award:
Shannon Mc Donel and his 1991 Z28. (If you look closely you can see his smile.)
When it came down to it, although I am the Ultimate Factory Original Purist, Shannon's car is an EXCELLENT example of what you can do WITHOUT devaluing your car. I must mention that I had my eye on 3 that were really deserving but I chose his because every modification he did was reversible and he kept the original parts he removed IF he ever decides in the future to go back to stock.
Hopefully I will see more of you there next year!
