New to the Midwest Region. New to the Viper world. Milwaukee, Wisconsin

[Oberyn]

Hey all,

I am thrilled to be a fellow Viper owner! I have always loved the Viper and I finally was in the position to buy myself one so I did! I am out of Waukesha, Wisconsin with a 2003 SRT 10. I am in love with this beautiful car and so excited for the summer of driving ahead. I was wondering if anyone knew of some reputable places to take the car to have it looked over in the Milwaukee area. I bought it used and want to make sure that there is nothing majorly wrong with it before I go to far along.

I think the shocks are probably shot, but I am not really sure how I can check this. Also, does anybody know of a good place to have this thing detailed in the area? I used to do detailing myself, but I don't trust myself with such a thin coat of paint and clear.

Looking forward to being a part of the community!

Thanks,

Kyle

Sweet. Used to live up in WI many years ago. I'd recommend joining the VOA and getting connected with the Illinois club. They always have big events and from the pictures they look like a great time.

Hi Kyle,
I am up near Madison. IF you ever really want to get some driver instruction on the car I would recommend signing up with the Illinois CLub since it is close to you and they have a lot of driving events.

Thank you for the advice! Looks like Roanoke is about 3 hours from me. Maybe one of these days I will road trip it down there.

I am going to try and make it to the July 9th meeting for sure. I am from St. Charles, IL originally so that's home for me.

Thank you, I appreciate the advice! How much activity is there up here in Wisco?

Hey,

My dad has a 2011 Challenger SRT8. I know it's not a Viper, but would it be all right if he were to come to a VOA meeting as well? I am sure he would love to see all the Vipers and talk cars with the group. I just don't know the protocol as I am on week 3 of Viper ownership!

Thanks,

Kyle

Gary,

Nice meeting you yesterday along with everyone else. It was great to see so many other Vipers and I felt welcomed into the community. I am looking forward to taking part in some events in the future.

I used to do detailing myself, but I don't trust myself with such a thin coat of paint and clear.

Welcome aboard, great group of guys/gals here! I wouldn't worry about the above, the first car I ever detailed (clayed/polished) was my 2003 SRT-10. Look up the 'Junkman' on YouTube or the detailing forum here, he gave me just enough confidence to do it.
