Smart Talk makes a road trip Friday to the Carlisle Ford Nationals.


Carlisle Events stages some of the most popular events in Pennsylvania as some half million people attend their car related shows every year. For one thing, it’s evidence of just how many car enthusiasts there are.


This weekend’s event at the Carlisle Fairgrounds will center on an American icon — Ford.


On Friday’s program, we’ll talk about the unveiling of the new Shelby American, Ford’s plans for electric vehicles and meet Ford’s first black woman designer, Emeline King – the primary designer of a generation of Mustangs and author of the new book What Do You Mean A Black Girl Can’t Design Cars? Emeline King, She Did It!
