Hello Viper Friends! The Southern California Viper Club has been maintaining a Viper Owners Map Directory since 2011 compliments to Kala! If you'd like to be added to the map, or have a curiosity as to where other fellow Viper owners are aggregated, visit:

https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=218068034306569294596.0004a092be0b07a4b6f6 b&msa=0

Includes a few neat Viper specific info such as Viper shops and past VOI event Pins!

**It'd be great to have you added to the map! It is a private map and only those who have the link may access this private map**

One thing to remember this map has 2 pages. A few years ago when I added myself I couldn't find myself till I was told there are 2 pages.

I started that map back in april of 2011, it has been awesome to see the page views grow to a whopping 15,4XX.

Whats really awesome is you have to have the link to reach the map, so everyone of those page views is directly from Viper Nation!

Hi Kala, just gave you credits to the map, I have been trying to track down the original author of this particular map for quite some time.

Thanks for adding your pin! I'm sure more will join you there... I have only posted this map something like 3 or 4 times since I started it.... with this new posting Albert did maybe a lot more will participate.

No worries Albert!

It was fun making it... It would be great if we could figure out how to make it into one page... Have a clue?

That map was a great idea! How public is it? Maybe I should only put the pin near my house. I just added a pin in Valencia, so any of you are welcome to visit.

Its available to anyone with the link, so just drop the pin on your city... Personally, I wouldn't put it right on my house.

This is cool! Can't get it to save my pin though. Dropped the pin, added description, saved. And it only shows for that session. When I close the map, then reload, the pin is gone. I must be skipping a step somewhere.

Your pin is on page 2, twice.

Smoky, I deleted the pins because I couldn't get it to stop zooming the whole map to that point... If you don't mind go back in and add your pin again. Thanks

Sorry about that. Didn't mean to annoy anyone. It must have been lagging on the updates because I wasn't seeing them appear.

No prob. I'll mess with it again tonight when I get some time. Thanks.

**NOTE**

This map has grown so much that there are MULTIPLE PAGES

The first page primarly consists of Southern California members, while the second page and up consist of everybody else!!!

If you have just added your pin and you do not see yourself, it is likely because you are on the second page, where all new additions are automatically placed

UPDATE: since Albert posted this we went from 15,4XX to 16,451 Views!

Copy this link into the SEARCH BAR on the Google Maps page to view all pages on one screen. So put your cursor on the link below, right click, select copy link address/shortcut, then paste it into the search bar on maps.

Nice! Thanks FrgMstr! trying to make it work in a mobile environment too.


I have a request for adding Viper friendly motels in North America. ie... we are on the road we know where its safe to park a Viper overnight.
Also that I add SRT Viper Dealers or Viper Mechanics in North America. That way if you encounter a problem while on the road, you can find your nearest part or mechanic...

If you like that idea, post up some Hotels here... I have a decent sized list of SRT Viper dealers I have collected which I can ad... Likewise, if no one really cares for these features, save me the time by speaking up!

Oops, I just discovered the other pages "after" I added my self again. Now I'm on page 2 from years ago and page 3 just today.
I guess I just thought all the pins would show on 1 map-screen so I didn't scroll down to the bottom.

Now there's 3 pages! We are looking for a way to get them all on one page.

If we get more than 500 entries, then this new map will cost $200 per year... AND it didn't copy over everyones info... removing link above until I figure out what needs to happen with the new map...

Is the "new" map on ZeeMaps like the vette forum is using or is it something else?

I do like way it displays better now that I see it.

Viper Girl
02-01-2014, 03:40 PM
Yes that is the new map the C7 vettes are using... Only problem is after we hit 1k pins... its $200 a year from what WhiteBeard and I read at that Map site... Not sure its $200 worth of cool to me.. LOL

But we'll see what else we can find.

here's what I uploaded from the KML file on Viper Owners... dont drop a pin here, not sure if we are going to keep it on Zee or not...https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=831539
