SHIFT on Sunday August 25th...SHIFT kick-offs a day of driving on the best roads Southern Indiana has to offer with a group of dedicated automotive enthusiasts with a light, hosted breakfast in Indianapolis. Then, work to reign-in the performance possibilities of some of the most recognized and icon performance sports cars and super cars as you carve through the back roads, stopping at selected way-points to collect your best 5 cards… all in support of the important work of the Three Points Racing Foundation.

August 25, 2019 SUNDAY...FYI...IN/KY Many Members plan to attend the Annual Kokomo Transmission Plant's Open Car Show on the grounds of KTP...US 931, Kokomo, IN.

The show opens at NOON EDT and runs until 4:00 PM EDT (registration starts at 9:00 AM). This is a GREAT EVENT...LOTS of great cars of all makes, show cars, and MOPARS !!! In past years, we have had 18-33 Vipers in the corral...along with Prowlers, ACR Neons, SRT-4's, SRT-6's, SRT-8's, and Viper Trucks...and many, many FINE older MOPARS from "the good old days" !!
The plant ("KTP") is located on the US 31 931 in Kokomo, IN...about 40 miles north of Indy.

The WONDERFUL FOLKS at KTP always go way out of their way to assist our Club in parking the Vipers in a safe and "showcased" location...and, to make us feel welcome year to year.

As the summer winds down, this is a good time to see your fellow Club Members, renew friendships, look at many, many cool cars...some new, some old, some, modified...ALL GREAT !!!

The Annual KTP show had great weather this year...and, a very decent overall turnout. Lots of old and new Mopars showed up...and at least 12 Vipers (all generations), plus many rods/customs, antique cars, and some cool trucks.

The KTP staff had us park the Vipers front and center...and, I noted many, many photos were taken by the folks attending the event.

The free hotdogs, chips, pop, and ice cream were welcome additions.

Overall, it was a fine day for a cruise and visiting with both new and old friends !!
