Call or E-mail me: 914-763-3136 tatorsdodge@msn.com


It will be a lot of fun this year with Vipers coming from all over the East Coast & Canada so don't miss it!!
On Saturday morning we will meet just off of Exit 14 from I87 at 0915-0930 and then we will cruise to the museum so we can all park together at the show!


The Saratoga Car Show has had attendance of over 700 cars! For eight years of the Viper Club going, we have had the record for the most cars of any one group ALL eight years!! Fifty or more Vipers in a line gets some attention....:D

[dbow119]

In the event that it rains next Saturday, will everyone still be going for the rain date on Sunday?

[John B]

Anyone driving up from CT on Saturday morning?

[ViperJames]

Anyone driving up from CT on Saturday morning?
Yes leaving Danbury area in a.m.

[John B]

Were you planning to meet on I87 around 9 AM? If so, do you want to drive up together?

[Helo Steve]

I'll be jumping on 87 at exit 21 (Cairo exit), assuming a group headed north that morning will be passing through around 8:00am or so.

Keep in mind that the 87 exit numbers reset around the Albany area.

[ViperTony]

I'm leaving early Sat morning from Cheshire,CT. I can meet up pretty much anywhere.

[Viper Wizard]

Confusion with my first post and it has been corrected.

Hotel: Nights to stay Friday, May 16th & Saturday, May 17th

Car show: Saturday, May 17th starts at 10:00 - rain date is the next day, Sunday the 18th

Final meeting spot Saturday morning [or rain date Sunday morning]: Exit 14 off Interstate 87 at 09:15

Dinner at the Log Jam Saturday, May 17th 2000 hrs [8:00 pm]




Yellow Viper owners, is this better? :t0135:

[John B]

Just let me know what time and where and I can meet you. The weather is forecasting rain early Saturday (depending on the station), then clearing by morning for the remainder of Sat. and Sun.

[dbow119]

Hey everyone, I have a civil service exam I have to take Saturday at 9:30 am so I'll be arriving late. The good news is I only live about 30-35 minutes away from the Auto Museum. Would you be able to save two parking spots for myself and my dad so we can park our cars with everyone once I get done with my exam?

[ViperJames]

I had originally planned on driving up Saturday morning and meeting up but it looks like the weather may make this show Sunday. If thats the case I am going to drive up Saturday a little later in the day, stay over as booked/planned (hope Log Jam is still on), then go to show sunday.

Chuck, when is a decision going to be made about the show date? Thanks

[Viper Wizard]

The Weather?

The Saratoga Automobile Museum is going to make a weather decision at 1200hrs [Noon] Friday the 16th as to which day they will be doing the car show. If you preregistered for the car show and gave your e-mail on the form, you will get an e-mail from the museum. If you didn't preregistered, you can check their web site tomorrow after 1200hrs: www.saratogaautomuseum.org
If the museum is going to go with the rain date Sunday the 18th, all the meeting times & spots are the same as Saturday.


The Dinner is still on!
2000hrs [8:00pm] Saturday the 17th at the Log Jam.

[ViperTony]

My plans have changed. My Viper is still at the tuner up in Poughkeepsie, they're not done with it yet hopefully I can pick it up in the morning and go directly to Saratoga. Worst case I may be late or miss the show but show up for dinner. Hopefully I'll see y'all tomorrow.

[dbow119]

I'll be late also. If someone can save two spots so my father and I can park with everyone I'd appreciate it.

[Helo Steve]

My Catskill trip got cancelled yesterday and I got called into work today. Sad that I'll miss this show, hope everyone has a great time!

[City]

Pics???

Someone must have ordered the 48 oz. rib eye!

[Viper Wizard]

I want to thank everyone who attended the TatorToga this weekend! I had a great time and it was good to see everybody! The food at the Log Jam was out of this World!

There was a newlywed couple that made the show and said they would be at the dinner but they were a no show for dinner? I wonder what they were doing? :t15197:
