*** - refers to shows that should not be missed under any circumstances. (DO NOT MISS)

***/***** - Biggest Car Show on East Coast/perhaps in the world each year.

Note: For race fans, we refer you to the Maple Grove Raceway Website where over 50 events are listed for the year to enjoy.

The shows in Carlisle and Hershey, while further away, are known to be some of the finest shows in the world not only in quantity but also in quality and therefore are included in the DO NOT MISS Category. We added a few of the larger shows in the reading/allentown(1 hour or so from lancaster) area for those closer to New Jersey.

Many people attend the Fall Carlisle Show on Sept 30th and then continue over to see the largest show on the East Coast, The Hershey Fall Meet, a week later. These are absolutely 2 of the best shows on the East Coast and an absolute DO NOt MISS!!!!!! They are also extremely large events and walking shoes are a must.

We will soon be adding all of our 42,000 car show pictures taken since 2003 to a remote picture gallery for your viewing pleasure. When this is finished, we will update this post with those links.  For now, please refer to the few posts we've included on this network with some of those photos. Much more to come!!!! This is a promise!

This is the most complete list on the web but if we missed anything please let us know as event dates can change. Once we have the omission, we'll add it accordingly. (As of 3/9/08 this is still a work in progress)

Note: This is a preliminary list and will be updated very soon with much more in depth information. (waiting for the latest cruisenews newsletter)
