The Carlisle GM Nationals Spotlight Cool Cars, Host and Event for Charity and More! CARLISLE, PA – The GM family of vehicles are rich with history and tradition. What were once stand-alone brands like Buick, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, etc. now fall under the General Motors umbrella and are all equally celebrated at the Carlisle GM Nationals each summer. This year, from June 25-26, the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds and Nationals Parts Depot Showfield come alive with over 100 years of history. As part of this showcase, there are special displays, guests, cool cars and more. In addition, GM Nationals weekend hosts a charity car show to benefit the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation.
It all starts early on Friday, June 25. When the gates open at 7 a.m. guests will be met with throngs of unique displays. For 2021, the must-see attractions include a nod to pop-culture by way of Comic-Car Con. This display will have selected cars that represent TV shows and movies spanning decades of entertainment. Further, guests can enjoy the 50th celebration of the Vega and H-Platform, a GM Swaps display, a GM Nationals Showcase display and the annual Solid Lifter Showroom in Building Y.
Along with the cool cars are equally cool guests. Just announced, spend a day at Carlisle on Saturday, June 26 and meet TV host and builder Aaron Kaufman of Gas Monkey Garage fame. Kaufman comes to the GM Nationals for the first time ever and is anxious to see the cars and meet the enthusiasts. In addition to Gas Monkey Garage, which Kaufman co-hosted with Richard Rawlings, he’s also the owner of Dallas, Texas based Arclight Fabrication. Kaufman also ventured into solo TV projects, including Shifting Gears with Aaron Kaufman and Aaron Needs a Job. His appearance time and on grounds location is TBD, but it is FREE to meet him and get an autograph once through the gates.
Cars at Carlisle don’t just show, they go too. The Carlisle GM Nationals have a few competitions that excite the crowed. This includes a rolling exhaust contest, real-street shootout and some fun with UMI Performance and autocross each day. The shootout is Friday, while the exhaust contest is Saturday. There are also seminars, installs with A&A Auto Stores and awards like Carlisle Elite, largest club and coolest club too.
Finally, ALL NEW in 2021, Carlisle Events and the Carlisle GM Nationals welcome the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation, the York County Corvette Club and Corvettes for Chip. This event, historically held in the fall, transitions to the GM Nationals and will welcome over 200 Corvettes to the grounds.
