The Columbus Nationals ?
Any of you see a pair of these scoops laying around in the swap meet?
I've considered going out to the nats but have not made the trip.
What is the size comparison this year to carlisle in the swap meet?

If you can only go to or the other, Carlisle is the one to go to if.....
Carlisle is huge, very organized and you're chances of finding what you're looking for are better. The downside is you pay a premium for that. It seems things are a little more expensive.
However, when you leave the fairgrounds, that's it. Nothing more is going on.
Mopar Nats is maybe 1/4 the size of Carlisle, and finding what you're looking for can be hit or miss. (I was looking for upper door bolsters for my Duster and didn't see any and passed by dozens at Carlisle when I didn't realize I needed them)
Things seem to be cheaper. There is racing at the venue and when your done at the track, there is something going on in several places. You'll have groups of people hanging out at hotel parking lots, there is impromptu cruising on Brice Rd., in Heath and Buckeye Lake.
If you can go to both, you quickly realize they're very different animals. They both have a good vibe, just very very different.
