This Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation has been part of Corvettes at Carlisle since the passing of Chip Miller in the early 2000s.  Most recently, the foundation has crafted a great way for you to support the cause, while also having a chance to win an amazing C8 Corvette! This year, the Corvette Contest returns and the prize is BETTER THAN EVER.  With your donation, you’ll earn sweepstakes tickets for a stunning 2025 ZR1 Corvette, complete with the ZTK Performance Package.

This Corvette is the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer, offers mind-bending specs and comes complete with the iconic design we've come to know from Corvette. 

Corvette ZR1 features a 5.5L, twin-turbocharged DOHC flat-plane crank V8 engine dubbed the LT7. The LT7 engine produces 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 828 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm, per SAE guidelines and boasts a GM-estimated top speed of over 215 mph on the racetrack and will dispatch the quarter mile with a GM-estimated sub-10-second time.

The purposeful carbon fiber aero package creates over 1,200 pounds of downforce at top speed. And the ZR1 coupe revives one of the most iconic styles in Corvette history: the split rear window.

Donation amounts vary for entry into the sweepstakes.  The base option is $25 and yields 18 tickets.  There are $50, $100, $200, $350, $500, $750, and $1,000 options too.  Each option includes exponentially more entries into the sweepstakes.  Enter now and in a few months, donate again.  The more times you enter, the more tickets you'll get and the more chances you have.  This contest runs until 11:59 (and 59 seconds) PM on September 28, 2025.  The drawing will take place at 12 PM on October 4.  You can even gift an entry.  Alternatively, there is a $125,000 cash option.  Either way, your donations help support the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation and its continued journey to raise money and awareness for the deadly disease that took Chip from us.

Corvettes at Carlisle shines a spotlight on a special 50-year display of Corvettes. For 2025, we focus on Corvettes from 1975!

Join us in celebrating five decades of automotive excellence with this special 50th Anniversary Display.  This gathering commemorates the legendary car and the transformative year of 1975, a pivotal moment in both automotive history and American culture as we see an end to the Vietnam war and the rise of disco! 

The 1975 Corvette, often regarded as a reflection of its era, introduced key changes that would shape the future of the Corvette line. Most notably, it was the final year the C3 generation offered a convertible model until 1986, marking the end of an era for Corvette’s open-top driving experience. This was the first Corvette to include catalytic converters as standard, reflecting new federal emission regulations that responded to the 1970s energy crisis and growing environmental awareness.  While horsepower was modest compared to earlier years, the 1975 model emphasized smoother, more efficient driving as Chevrolet responded to the changing automotive landscape of the mid-70s while still featuring the famous 350 cubic-inch V8 engine.

If you own a 1975 Corvette and would like it to be considered as a featured vehicle at the 2025 Corvettes at Carlisle, please submit the application linked below  This incredible display will be sure to be a hit!  The deadline to apply is May 1st, 2025.

If you have any questions regarding the 1975 Corvette Reunion, please contact Joe Clemente via email at MR35Th@aol.com. To apply for the special display, visit CarlisleFeatures.com to fill out an application!

Some of the top minds in their respective fields come to Corvettes at Carlisle and if you do the same, you have the unique opportunity to sit in and learn first-hand from them by way of FREE Seminars.

Topics and speakers vary, but they may cover the history of a particular generation of Corvette, how to upgrade or enhance your ride without voiding a warranty, driving tips and more. You'll hear from certified GM technicians, engineers, expert drivers car care experts and restorers. In fact, as the seminar list goes, here are some details on what's confirmed to date.

1)  Paul Koerner and the Corvette Mechanic Team:  Corvettes at Carlisle has been fortunate to have the expertise and support of GM World-Class Certified Technician since 2004.  Offering free diagnostics for your Corvette and seminars ranging from early to late-model Corvettes, there is something for everyone!

More seminars and the special guests who host them will be announced during the first half of 2024. Then, when the official event guide goes live in August, you'll get a complete run down of what you can expect at Corvettes at Carlisle.

Chip Miller co-founded Carlisle Events in 1974 and throughout his personal and professional life, was a die-hard automotive enthusiast.

The scholarship is intended to support the next generation of students who share Chip’s love for all things automotive. This amazing opportunity is open to any high school, undergraduate, graduate, or trade school student pursuing a career in the automotive field. Multiple $1,000 awards are available, with winners announced on May 30, 2025. The application window will be open December 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025.

One of the best parts of the Corvette weekend is spending time with some of the most relevant names in the Corvette hobby. What tops that? Having your Corvette chosen as a Celebrity Choice Award winner! The “ celebrities” are notable people within the Corvette hobby, such as GM engineers who were the visionaries behind the cars you love, club leaders who make it their mission to bring people to the event each year, Corvette dignitaries and special guests from throughout the Corvette world. Receiving a Celebrity Choice award is a true honor when a celebrity is selecting your car from a Fun Field filled with beautiful Corvettes representing all generations. The choice is theirs alone and can be for any reason- the color, your story, the year. The choice is the car that speaks to them on a personal level rather than traditional judging, as there is no point scoring. 

Celebrity Choice selections will start on Friday at 10AM and runs through Saturday at 1PM. All Corvettes at Carlisle registered Fun Field participants are eligible to be selected as a celebrity choice winner. 
If your car is chosen as a winner, the Celebrity will place a sticker on your windshield and you will be eligible to participate in the Awards Parade in front of the stage. During the parade, your name will be announced as you pull up to the stage to receive the award from the Miller family. The parade is a great photo-op for family and friends. A photographer will be taking pictures of each car as it drives through the parade. Don’t miss this opportunity to show the world your Celebrity Choice!

If you cannot attend the parade, your award can be picked up throughout the weekend at Guest Services (see event guide for times). After the show you may pick up your award during regular business hours at the fairgrounds or we will ship awards for $20.

Ready, Set, Go! Corvette owners, you now have a chance to showcase just what your ride sounds like in a standalone environment. Forget about revving your engine just to turn heads, now you’re on the go and all eyes are on you Thursday, Friday and Saturday as part of Corvettes at Carlisle! Don't miss the competition as Corvettes will start in a line on the east side of the grounds near the pavilion/Gate 6 and roar as they accelerate up the hill to the north side of the grounds. This will also be judged but take note, the best overall sound will take home the prize, not necessarily the loudest.

The contest consists of three rounds, with each round hosting a maximum of 10 Corvettes. Entrants are accepted for sign-up on a first come first served basis and we do expect each round to be filled so please sign up early. From the three rounds we will select a number of cars to move on to the finale on Saturday. The list of who qualified for the finale will be posted on Saturday at Guest Services near the Grandstand. You must participate in a qualifying round to have a chance to participate in the finale!

The Exhaust Competition is FREE but you MUST be a registered Fun Field participant to be eligible to compete! Again, sign up in Guest Services starting Thursday at 7 AM.  You may only signup for one qualifying round!

The NCRS Gallery's purpose is to present an ever-changing unique Corvette collection in a true gallery exhibit format. This enables non-NCRS members to have a better understanding of the National Corvette Restorers Society and the group’s goals and purposes. The collection is made up of select Corvettes representing many NCRS Judging Classes, Duntov Mark of Excellence Award® winners, McLellan Mark of Excellence Award® winners, NCRS-Chevrolet Bowtie Award® recipients for Preservation Excellence, American Heritage Award® recipients, and Sportsman Award® Corvettes.

National Corvette Restorers Society

On Saturday at noon, we would like for all drivers near their Corvettes to start their engines and give them a good rev for 15 seconds in tribute to Chip Miller (co-founder of Carlisle Events) and all of our other Corvette friends that have passed, followed by a brief moment of silence.

The Chip Miller Charitable Foundation

The Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation was launched in 2004 following the passing of National Corvette Hall of Famer and Carlisle Events co-founder Chip Miller.  Over the past 20 years, the foundation has worked tirelessly to promote awareness of the disease and raise money for those in need who are impacted by it.  Now, you have an opportunity to make the biggest impact of all by donating to win the best Corvette ever produced, a 2025 ZR1 with ZTK Performance Package.  As an added bonus, we’ll give you 50% MORE chances to win.

This is the most power ever from a factory Corvette (1,064 horsepower) and the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer.  Corvette ZR1 boasts a GM-estimated top speed of over 215 mph on the racetrack and will dispatch the quarter mile with a GM-estimated sub-10-second time.

Scan the QR code below or link over to the contest page to learn more about it and enter.  The entry window is open now through September 28, 2025, with the drawing taking place on October 4 at 12 PM.   Thanks for your support and good luck!

The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds is a large footprint that can be a challenge at times, even for the most experienced attendee. 82 acres, 16+ miles of paved roadway, vendors and cars everywhere…it’s easy to understand how you may start wondering to yourself “where did I see that part or car I want to buy?” “How do I get my purchase from its space to my truck?” “How am I going to do this?” 

Never fear, because we’ve compiled a helpful list of ways that enhance your on-site experience at Carlisle! Thanks for joining us and enjoy your time at the show!

1. BRING CASH - The more the better. It’s hard to negotiate a deal without being able to pay.
2. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - It’s a lot of walking.
3. SUN BLOCK/DRINK LIQUIDS - You’ll be in the sun all day. It’s important to protect yourself and stay hydrated, especially if your weekend outdoors is your first prolonged exposure to the sun for the year.
4. REMEMBER THE SPACE - Take a picture of the space location or write it down. Every space at Carlisle has a disk to designate the space. Look down and you’ll see the space marker. Write down the letter and number. Don’t try to remember the space or the surrounding area. You’ll spend the rest of the day looking for it.
5. COME EARLY - Rare parts and great deals typically happen for the first person to find them. Set up day(s) and the first day of the event are for the serious shoppers.
6. ACT FAST - If you see a great deal, grab it. If you plan to come back later, it will probably be gone.
7. NEGOTIATE - It’s a flea market so don’t be afraid to make a REASONABLE offer.
8. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - Chances are good that you will find something you weren’t planning to find, so keep your eyes open.
9. LOOK EVERYWHERE - Even if you are looking for parts for your brand of vehicle, don’t walk past the vendor selling parts for other models or generations just because you assume there’s no way the vendor has what you want. Give their space a look too. They might not only have it, it may be cheap since it’s not what they typically sell.
10. USE THE CARLISLE EVENTS APP - Use the FREE Carlisle Events app to easily find your way back to a vendor (if you know the row and space). You can also use it to check activity schedules, register for other events, connect with fellow enthusiasts via social media, browse a digital copy of the event guide and more.
11. STAY LATE – There are always deals at Carlisle, but sometimes the best ones happen early on day 1 of a show, or late on its final day. Vendors are typically more willing to negotiate when they are packing up – especially large items.
12. BRING A SHOPPING LIST - Our memories aren’t as good as we think. Write it down. You can even make a list on your phone. Take pictures of what you need.
13. BRING A BAG, CART, ETC. - Parts will get heavy so have a way to carry your purchases. Ask the seller if you can leave heavy parts until later.
14. HAVE IT HAULED - Carlisle Events offers FREE* parts hauling. Keep that in mind if you’re looking at an engine, transmission, truck bed, etc.
15. FREE TAXI SERVICE – Need to get from point A to point B but don’t feel like walking it? Carlisle Events offers a FREE* taxi service. Dial 717-960-6429 to secure a ride. 
16. ASK! - If someone has parts for a vehicle but not the ones you need, ask if the seller has it. It might still be in his truck or at home. Even if he doesn’t, he might know someone who does.
17. KNOW THE VALUE - Do some homework on the parts you’re looking for so you know if the price is a good deal.
18. AVOID THE CROWDS - When you arrive, go to an out-of-the-way area to start rather than following the herd.
19. WALK IT ALL - Don’t miss any rows. The Carlisle Fairgrounds isn’t a perfect grid so make sure you hit every row and space.
20. ADVERTISE - Wear a hat, shirt or signboard that spotlights what you’re looking for.  It just might create a conversation, especially if what you’re searching for is obscure and/or rare. 

*While parts hauling and taxi service are free, donations are graciously accepted.  Donated money goes directly to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation.
