Mr. T, and the rest of the board "AWESOME JOB" each year the NY/CT Club keeps getting better. Thank you.

[City]

Seriously nice job Tony! Congrats of running an all business structured meeting to get things done!

The food was good too! Thanks Wizard.

Sorry Plum, but I ate most of your deviled eggs! Muhaha

[pony23]

That is a nice packed schedule. Great job guys.

The Marc's cruise nights in Granby might be a no go this year. The place is being foreclosed on right now.

It figures. LOL. And thanks Scott/Adrian. It's a lot easier when so many folks get involved. But Chuck....I'm impressed. He was organized....tables/chairs/notepads/calendars/pens/beads....I have new-found respect (a smidgen) for red viper owners now. :D

Sounds like we have a fun filled year ahead of us! I'm glad to see that Orange County Choppers and Lebanan Valley made it on the list for possible locations as I had both written down. Last year there was a Mopar car show at Lebanon Valley so if they do it again and it doesn't conflict with anything maybe we can go to that and invite the New England group to do some drag racing!

If I can make another suggestion for possible events:
Adirondack Nationals in Lake George, NY on September 5th-7th (probably Saturday the 6th would be the best day to attend).
The Way We Were Car Show in Ballston Spa, NY on Sunday, October 12th (many clubs attend this event and there are literally 500-600 cars).
Maybe a Cruise to Sleepy Hollow, NY or Salem, MA in October since I kind of want to hang one of those witches crashing into something decorations on the windshield...

[HobokenViper]

Sounds like a great year ahead! Looking forward to finally meeting many of you guys.

Cruise to Sleepy Hollow in the fall sounds like a lot of fun. There is actually a pumpkin town that they create right nearby there out of over 30,000 pumpkins, and it's really something amazing to see and bring the kids to. Might be fun to loop both together?

Also should mention the annual 9/11 cruise through NYC with the NJ crew. Haven't done it yet, but heard its an amazing experience.

[pony23]

Great news, looks like Marks will be a go for this year. They settled the foreclosure.

Caffeine and carburetors moved their start date to April 6th.

Awesome, Congrats! Can't wait to see you this year!

I was thinking about going to the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance this year as a spectator. The event is held on May 31st for American vehicles and June 1st for International foreign vehicles this year. I haven't decided if I will go down for both days and get a hotel nearby or just go down on Sunday (I really want to see a Ferrari F50 in person and this might be the best opportunity to do so). Would any other Vipers be interested in attending? From my understanding it is $30 per day or $45 for the weekend.

I'm interested. I've been there before and always a good time. I usually go as a spectator.

[dbow119]

Tony, glad to hear it! Hopefully some more people will like to join us once it gets closer to the event. Since you've been there before, is any particular show/day better or would you consider both days equally good? Normally I would go visit my sister who lives in CT and stay at her house for the night so I could go both days, but she'll be in Africa chasing Simba around so now I'm debating if it'll be worth getting a hotel for.

*** Schedule Update/Change ***

The 4/27 event has changed. Instead of Paintball we're going a Breakfast Run to Maureen's Kitchen on 4/27. Adrian will post details later. But this event is in direct response to members' voicing their URGE to take out our Vipers sooner rather than later. Get them ready for the breakfast run. :bth_smiley_formula1

[NJDAVE]

Tony is the Dyno Day & BBQ still on for next weekend?

Nothing yet. Check back in a week.

[ViperTony]

The dyno day at PowerPlant this coming weekend is canceled. Unfortunately, Gjon broke his dyno :D due to the massive builds he's been putting out. It won't be fixed in time for this weekend. We'll reschedule this later this fall.

[pony23]

What is the deal for the Splash brunch cruise? Times? Looking to work this into my schedule.

Thanks
