Finally

[JCGiglia]

Hello everyone, Jason here from Wheatfield, NY - about 15 minutes north of sunny Buffalo, NY! Proud and excited to be a member, as well as a new Viper owner as of last Thursday. Hoping to tap into all of the wisdom that this forum has to offer, as well as to contribute anywhere I can. Any fellow WNYers here?

Welcome aboard. I thought 15 mins north of Buffalo was Canada! Lol

Awesome car, can you give us some background on it, year, number of owners, miles? That far north gets cold, make sure to have a daily bowl of oatmeal!!

Lol Fatman with the oatmeal I think it’s time for a new screen name. Oatmeal2006?

Hi Jason, Congratulations on your Viper! my first Viper was a silver Gen3 also... still a favorite look.

I'm near NYC, but spend a fair amount of time in the Rochester area. There are a few club members in Utica, Rochester, Buffalo, but I also believe many more haven't joined the VOA. The cars are out there.

Take a look at the Ohio VOA region, Western Reserve VOA region, and even Ontario if you like to drive that direction. See whose events fit your destinations best. Of course you are welcome to come down to any NY/CT region events regardless of which VOA region you join.

I'll drop you a line the next time I'm headed up that way-

Nice car. Your gonna love it. I noticed that it has a Paxton on it, the car must be fun to drive with the extra go under the hood.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! Although I may experience some Canadian-like weather, I assure you that I definitely pay NYS property taxes, lol!
My sister lives in Rochester, so I'm no stranger to that area (and its famous garbage plates!), so feel free to reach out if you're ever in the area.
It's a 2003 with only 17,250 original owner miles, and yes...its packing a Paxton Novi 2000 w/Corsa exhaust. Its...impressive, to say the least.
It took me a while to pick up on the oatmeal comments, but I assure you that at 6'3" and 240 lbs, I barely fit in the snake, lol!
Thank you all for the warm welcome...I'm glad to be a part of such an elite and welcoming group!

I still don't get the oatmeal reference.
