The Northeast / Outer Banks Zone of the VOA of the Carolinas is involved with the 3rd Annual Coastal Virginia Auto Show. Tom and Rich have received numerous replies from our region members showing an interest in attending. Based on the telephone calls they have received, the event coordinator indicated if we could have 10 Vipers registered by early September, we could have our own separate Viper category with a Best of Show, 1st, and 2nd place trophies....not the kind of trophies I have been given out, but rather those of higher quality.

To help incentivize this event, the region will reimburse $25.00 to the first 10 members who register and pay the $50.00 registration fee.

Also, for everyone who registers, they will receive a free t-shirt and a goody bag. We need to register as soon as we can, so Tom and Rich can make plans for placing our Vipers indoors. If we get 10 or 50 Vipers to register, all Vipers will be indoors and showed together. The event coordinator needs to know as soon as possible how many Vipers will be attending, so they can make arrangement for additional indoor space if needed.

Details of show: Load in is between 9AM and 10PM Friday November 17. There will be 24 hour security provided. For safety and insurance reasons all cars must have less than 1/4 tank of gas when in the show. Battery must be disconnected in the show. Awards and trophies handed out Sunday with removal of vehicle from the event around 6PM Sunday.

If we can get enough people to come, Tom said he would reserve a section of the restaurant attached to the hotel (https://www.maxandermas.com/) for a club dinner Saturday Night. Check out the menu, it looks pretty good.

If enough people sign up, Tom will provide his commuter vehicle (Nissan Sentra) for anybody wanting to drive around and be a tourist at the ocean front.

Event Information:

Date: 17 November 9am - 10pm for load time of your Viper
Date: 18 - 19 November 2017 for the Actual Event

By the way, Rick and I won't be part of the $25 reimbursement so that's 10 in addition to us that will be reimbursed.

UPDATE: I now have 9 Vipers signed up for this event! I am still lacking a Gen 4 for the display though. I am trying to get a 25th anniversary display set up so we can show the public the differences in the 5 Generations side by side. We will have all the Vipers entered together on the show floor.I will be placing the show info on the Virginia Forum tonight since it is in their state. Good news! the organizers have decided we have enough Vipers entered to qualify for a customized "Best of show" trophy as well as 1'st and 2'nd place trophies. Now we qualify for the big trophy and that is club participation. If you are still on the fence with this event, contact me and I'll give you more information.

Tom,

That's great...hopefully either our region or the VA/MD region can come up with a couple Vipers, or at least a Gen IV.

We will not be able to attend as we are having a special celebration at our church that Sunday.

Sorry, two less Vipers.

Larry and Trish[/That's OK, have a good time.

I am still in need of a Gen I Viper for the Viper Display. If anyone is interested, registration is still open. We are accepting any year Viper for the show.
