It’s time for our fall cruise to visit Ben Keating in Victoria, check out his shop and cars, spend time with him and enjoy a nice lunch at the Pump House restaurant. If ya’ll joined us last year you know exactly what’s going on!

On Saturday October 24th we’ll depart Houston at 9:00 a.m. sharp and Anthony Leidelmeyer will lead our cruise down to Victoria. We'll meet in the Chick Fila parking lot on Hwy 59 at Grand Parkway/Hwy 99.

Hope to make this one, we've never visited his shop. After last years attempt (see below).

Note to Self: Do not be the last one to the leave parking lot, if you get caught at a light and the others enter the freeway ..... just wave bye you won't catch-up!

We will try to do better this year Allen, probably leave a tail end sweeper and someone in the middle as well.

Yes Alan but it kept you from getting a ticket like some of us did.

That's right ..... I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking that ticket and the one on 610 on my behalf .... the kindness of this club truly is amazing!

Alan, we're going to have someone in the middle and at the end of the conga like to make sure YOU don't get lost! We'll also send out the street address later this week so you can plug it into your phone . . . yep, we know your hardcore ACR doesn't have a GPS ;-)

Folks,

We hate it that almost every time we’ve had a driving event this year it rains. Tomorrow’s forecast for both Houston and Victoria continues that trend and Andy just sold the last set of detachable Viper pontoons (just kidding)!

So, in the abundance of caution we’ve decided to reschedule the visit to Ben’s to December 12th.

Don’t forget the next event is at the Redneck Country Club on November 7th. Please let us know if you’re coming and send in your check for $40/person or you can pay via paypal to president@houstonviperclub.com – remember to send to family and friends so we don’t get charged a fee!

Stay dry and safe this weekend!

Your humble officers
