It's a beautiful thing to see a viper behind you. First time having that happen.

They look so angry don't they???
I am always so shocked how wide the ass is when driving behind one. I love it!

Lucky you. It's quite a rare sight around here... I know that there are a few in the SF Bay area but I never see any :(

Viper convoys are just one of the perks of joining the Club. After 2 years it still hasn't gotten old. Now head over and sign up!!
Huh, I was a member??? Says Enthusiast...

Cali is one of the largest reigons. They are quite active and have some cool events...

I still get excited when I see any other viper in the wild. Even the older Gen 1 still looks badass going down the road.

Undoubtedly, I went to a VOA dinner a couple months back and it was really nice to meet some of the guys and all.
It's just that I don't ever see any vipers on the road. The last one I saw was last year, in the summer, a red GTS. Since then, nada :(
The only one that I used to see was a 2008-2009 ACR that was in the same parking lot. I haven't seen it in quite a while unfortunately.

Any Cruise related events? This year we had a Wine Cruise and a fall cruise. It's kinda nice having the wife being interested in car stuff. They don't tend to have much fun at track events..

It is kind of weird - about 15 years ago I'd see at least one a day, and then they just started getting rarer and rarer. I chalked a lot of that up to the short half-life of the cars, but can't totally explain it because there are plenty of them being sold around here to replenish the ones being crashed or garaged for storage. I've only seen two Gen V's on the road - one an ACR in SSG and another wingless car in what looked like gunmetal (couldn't tell what exactly it was - I think it was a GTS).

I don't know since I've been a member since September only but I believe that they have some cool outings. There was something down Highway 1 a couple months back, with wine testing and whatnot. I couldn't make it but next time something comes up, I'll try to attend.
I see more Lambos, McLarens, Jaguar F-Type and Aston Martins than Vipers.
I guess that people don't drive their Vipers to work ;)
