Well I attended my first Viper Club event yesterday in NY 135 Vipers at Chuck Tators Dodge's BBQ. They took a Aerial photo and it was the largest turnout ever! 87 last year! I saw every type and Color! A guy drove up in front of the place with a mulholland Blue Prowler to take a few pic's, and you would have thought it was a 1965 volkswagon beetle!No one seemed to notice. Very interesting range of people. I've never seem so many little guys driving Vipers. I guess they fit better!! Only 1 vender selling stuff and it was Zero Altitude Flight and i just bought stuff from them on tuesday! Chuck Tator was in His Wizard costume! (He's called the Viper wizard)(My first Prowler event was better ( Niagara Falls 2003)We got to cruise around together!

Chuck - all those 'small guys' there with their Vipers,,,,,,those were the horse jockeys that didn't make the field at the Kentucky Derby on saturday. Small man syndrome,,,very complex. They can control a 1000 lb speed animal but not a 500 hp beast. No wonder they didn't want to cruise the streets, lol.

I didn't bring my digital camera. The wife needed it for Christopher's confirmation. (I'm not the dad.) I told Jack from Zero Altitude to email me some of his. I bought a aerial photo but it will take at least a month to get. Strange type of gathering. BBQ at noon, aerial photo around 1:00 and that was about it! You can only look at cars so long and especially if they all basicly the same. 1 day events are tough to really get to know anyone. It was a start. I know for legal reasons there was only soda, but a few drinks certainly livens things up a bit. It might have happened for the few dozen who were staying overnight at the Hilton! The band played country western Music, which isn't my favorite. I would have preferred a Rock and Roll band! Not complaining, i can only walk around and mingle for 3 or 4 hrs without getting bored. Great work by Tator Dodge to hold such an event yearly.

I could be wrong,,,,but I wouldn't think country western music and Vipers go together. That would have been a real party if they would have invited RealRod Bob to be the car event refreshment director, lol.

I was considering attending that event,Chuck but time did not permit it.
You'll find that the Viper group is a lot different than the Prowler bunch.
The events I attended so far with the P.O.A.beat anything else I've ever been to...let's keep them going!

Hey Chuck, I was going to attend but couldn't swing it. I used Tator to push through my Ram SRT10 - he was great to deal with. Wish I was there. Some cool pics on the Viper site.

Wayne you need to have your Ram SRT truck brought in for recall! Some disgruntiled employee decided to leave the camshaft sprocket retaining bolts loose on some 2004 SRT/10 Vipers and Ram SRT/10 trucks! A loose camshaft sprocket bolt could fall out and really damage the engine! Of course it didn't say that in the letter i got! I heard it from a very good source! Its a 3/12 hr job on my Viper and a 5 1/2 hr job on your truck!

Thanks Chuck, not all engines were affected. My truck was not one of the recalled ones - I did a check

Chuck...

I'll bet the Viper club would like to hear about the event.
