    any members around charleston?

    I know of a few vipers in the Charleston area but I don't know if any of them are members here. I also noticed one of the winners of the drawing was from Mt. Pleasant named Larry Burns. Anyone know him? I'm always looking to meet other viper owners around me. Thanks for any help.

    We have members in Greenville, Mt Pleasant, Greenwood, Anderson, and Gaston. Are any of those close to you?

    Mt. Pleasant is basically a suburb or charleston and where the c&c is held. Not sure about the other cities. We have only lived here for about a year and are still getting our bearing on what's close and what's not. I keep hoping to see other vipers at c&c but so far no luck.

    Here are the cars I know of local to me

    Yellow rt--10 Owner is in construction or something like that
    Black srt-10 vert. Owner works at local dodge dealership
    White srt-10 vert. Met the owner a couple times at car shows.
    Orange srt-10 coupe. Met owner at car show once
    Orange rt-10 with a bunch of crazy body work. Never met him/her
    Black srt-10 vert. My old car. Met owner once.

    Out of all these cars, most of them are rarely seen. I see more Ferrari and ford gt's if you can believe that.

    WOW! We'll have to get you some club business cards to hand out! Would love to execute an event in your area. Please feel free to reach out if you have any ideas!

    Here's an idea once it warms up a little. How about C&C in the morning, then head over to the new indoor go cart place that is opening up next week. http://charlestonrush.com/?page_id=117
    I don't know how many of you are into that kind of stuff, but its an idea. Or we can go over to the battleship/aircraft carrier and do a tour. Its pretty awesome if you havn't been. Either way, I would love to get some fellow viper owners down this way.

    I will do my best to get up that way for some of the carolina's stuff this year as well. Last year was pretty crazy with just moving here and getting spun up with work stuff. I was really upset that I didn't make the tail of the dragon, biltmore house, or christmas party. I'm usually on call for at least one weekend a month, so its a little tricky for scheduling stuff.

    I can also do tours on the C-17 if there are any military buff's out there and want a close up view. Just let me know. One of the perks of my job I suppose.

    That sounds great. We're developing the events list now. We have June, July, and September open at the moment. There will be many that travel 3-5 hours so we should plan to make this at least a 2 day event. Members could arrive Friday night, get settled in, and then we can hit C&C in the morning. Perhaps we can tour of the battleship/carrier and maybe squeeze in the go-karts for an hour or so. Definitely open to ideas but this would be a great start. I will be in touch.

    I love Charleston and will dominate high-speed go karts.

    C-17, aircraft carrier, C&C, carts sound great. We have the USS North Carolina at Wilmington, but a carrier would be awesome.

    Patriots Point is really cool, been a few years since I was there - time to go back.

    Vipers invade Charleston - sounds awesome!

    (also, I tend to "not follow the rules" when go-karting, so all have been warned)

    For no rules, try driving in India. My friends over there have a saying: "If you don't break the rules, then the rules will break you."

    Yes, I know Larry. He tracks his Gen 4 with us at Roebling. He and his wife are super nice folks.
