Carlisle or Nats-which is better?

I go to the Nats every year. I'm not gonna lie, sometimes it's an acquired taste.
If you go there looking to critique the toilets, you'll hate it! The swap is big, but not as big as Carlisle. Don't worry, it won't just be picked over crap from Carlisle, but you will be able to check it out in one day.
The racing is great! Heath is cool, but they're trying to figure out a happy medium. The first couple years they had some accidents (none were Mopars BTW. Locals showing their ***.) and the Chief of Police who was a big Mopar fan retired. The official cruise in Heath is Saturday, but Friday will be better.
I go to Carlisle every other year. Mostly because of the distance for me.
I really like that they have everything nice and organized. The swap meet is twice the size and it will take some time to go thru. The bathrooms are spotless.
But, the bathrooms being so clean comes at a cost. Bathroom attendants! I go to the toilet, I don't want to have a conversation with anybody! I do my thing then leave. The attendants are as bad as squeegee guys! The tip jars are a put off to me. There is no racing, and if there is a cruise official or otherwise, I've never seen it. The closest I've come was a bunch of Neon owners doing neutral drops in the hotel parking lot.
If your there for just the show, you'll love Carlisle. Nats for the whole "vibe".
I strongly suggest you do both if you can.
