TRS Event Ford Ranger 40th Anniversary - Truck Nationals - Carlisle PA

A road trip sounds nice, but alas..

Don’t rush. You don’t have to say “no” this early in the game.

Register Under The Ranger Station Club Name So We Can Get A Tent:

I have added The Ranger Station as a list of clubs. We need at least 15 people to register under The Ranger Station to get a tent. See below:

"Hi James,

You are welcome! I was excited to see your club come in, especially since this year is the 40th Anniversary of the Ranger! I have added your club to be an official club at Truck Nationals! I’m not sure if you have ever attended the event, but I can answer any questions you may have. First, let me explain how our “club program” works! (I apologize for the long email in advance)

Your members will now be able to select your club when registering for the Showfield (whether they do it online at https://store.carlisleevents.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=28 or on the phone, 717-243-7855). This is how we will be able to tell how many people are registered under your club, which matters for a couple of reasons. As a new club, we have a new rule in place that you must have 15 vehicles registered under your club by the Gate-N-Go & Club Tent Deadline of June 20th to get a club tent at the show. At any point of time that you want to check and see how many people are registered, you can reach out to me and I can provide you a list. Once you hit 15, you can turn in the attached form to purchase a club tent. If you are able to reach 25 members registered by the deadline, you would actually get a FREE club tent! If you hit 25 members by the conclusion of this year’s Truck Nationals, then the next year you’d automatically get a free club tent!

The club tent is meant to be a place that your club members can hang out! The rules for the club tent are in the attachment above. We would allot a place for your club tent and some parking around the tent. The event map would show your club name and denote where your spot is. If any of your members have already registered, they can call in to our office at 717-243-7855 to get your club added to their registration!"

So we need 15 vehicles registered. Better get the word out.

Mine isn't even going. I don't think it would be wise to try to tow TRS2 behind Curious Hound1.

@PlumCrazy @JohnnyO I added The Ranger Station as a club. If you've already registered, you can call 717-243-7855 to get The Ranger Station club added to your registration. We need 15 people to be eligible for a tent.

Just for the fun of it, Carlisle is also having a 30 year anniversary for Ford Lightning's. First one's came out in 93. Comments should be interesting. LOL!!

I have not registered yet. Been trying to scrimp my pennies to get the leveling kit installed. Almost there.

I registered with TRS last night. I may register my dually or something too....IDK.

Is this ranger specific or RBV as in, could I bring my BII? Anyone know? Thanks.

 

[PlumCrazy]

Its open to anything, Carlisle doesn't care what type of vehicle you register with what group.

 

[sgtsandman]

If things look good and the girlfriend can attend, I’ll bump up the numbers by registering each of us separately and bring both Rangers for the field but not for judging.

I wish I could go to this one... but my Oldest son is getting Married in August (quite possibly that weekend) and with several concerts this year and the trail ride, I think I will have used my good will up with my wife for taking off and doing things out of state lol

A life sized cutout of you might work for the wedding. The only caveat might be that your wife suddenly finds you to be a better dancer.

I still need to see if I can get the Truck Nationals to let me display the TRS-2 Ford Ranger.

For anyone that's gone to the Truck Nationals before ( @JohnnyO ) does Skyjacker Suspension come there and put on a display? If Carlisle won't let me display it maybe I can get it in the Skyjacker display. This thing has had the same Skyjacker Suspension kit on it since 2005 for a total of 18-years.

Which motor ya got in that?
Any Mods?
