Well we just completed our first ever Houston based Texas Viper Roundup. I wanted to start this thread so that everyone could check out the incredible machines new and old we had in attendance!
Generations shot, Gen 1-5.

Saw your pics on Twitter/Instagram yesterday. I think you have more Vipers there than anywhere else in the country. Love the pics of all the Generations together.

Man if it was dry I think you would have seen double the number you saw easily. Rain was forecasted 100% each day Friday-Sunday with 1-3 inches on Saturday. I had a lot of cancelations but still had quite a few come out!

Nice, always good to see a lot of Viper in one place. I see you are good with the camera.

Great job Andy for organizing the fun weekend and your pictures are spectacular as always.
This just goes to show that Vipers don't melt in the rain!
Medusa #1 handled beautifully in the rain and the soft top was tight as a drum with no leaks - YAY! I did find the rain traction control interesting!

I agree plenty of wet weather testing! My R888's where much better in the rain than I previously thought and I have a lot more confidence in them should I find myself in the same situation again. Rain mode worked very well :)
I have some more pictures of your car that I will get edited and added to this thread.

Right?! The R888's are just endearing themselves in my heart over and over again... I was blown away by their performance in monsoon conditions lol.
Great pics, love the overhead street shot!

I'll make sure I work on the dates a little harder next year so we don't overlap with something like TX2K again. You really would have had a blast.

Thank you Andy and the Houston VOA for another fun weekend! My wife and I left our Viper at home, took a DD 70 miles North and had a blast despite the rain ...... As they say, Come for the Cars, Stay for the People :D

Beautiful Medusa. Would you mind posting a review of the car? How is it to drive compared to other Vipers? Gen V coupe, Gen 3 or 4 convertible, Gen 2 RT/10? Are there any shakes or rattles? Is there much wind noise and / or wind buffeting hitting the driver or passenger?

Thanks, Norma Jean certainly is a beaut and an absolute blast to drive! I think there's more to come about her in the first quarter '15 Viper Mag but I guess I could start another thread on her.

More great pictures, Andy. I take it that's your 92 in the center of the first pics and then your TA in the next pic. So, do you live near by this event? Or, did you trailer them? Either way you're doing it right :)

Hi Tim,
The beauty of organizing an event like this is that you can put it close to home lol. I literally live right across the street, and with a lift in the garage and an extra car hauler I thought it would be nice to have someone close that could help put a car back together if there were any problems.
Yes that is my 92 in the photo's, my Dad drove the car out while I was driving the TA. I really wanted to show off the 92 but with the weather being as poor as it was I thought it was best to drive it over for the photo's and then tuck it away while using the TA for most of the street duty.
Hopefully next year the weather will cooperate a little better so that I can lead some cruises in the gen 1.
