    Oh is this a VCA thing? That really sucks I have been wanting to attend a National Viper gathering like this since I have been a Viper owner and now it's finally in my back yard and won't go if it's indeed run by the VCA.

    Correct and well said, it is put on by the VCA, and myself and many others do not care who puts it on as you say. There will be a big turn out Im sure. A few will not be missed. And hey, its clooooose by for the numerous Texas, central and southwest area groups.

    I do, my distain for that discrace of a club is still quite real. You don't treat people(Viper Owners) and your manufacturer that way and expect for everything to be peachy one year out. I am still banned from that club as are several Houston Members that chose to expose Lee and Chris for what they absolutely were.

    For one don't speak for "others", that's fine you don't care who puts it on, but the number of people you think don't care might not be entirely accurate. The Houston membership voted to leave the VCA for a reason.

    I believe that is incorrect, VCA members just got a cheaper rate. Anyone could go and I honestly don't think a lot of people will.

    I think you are going to be surprised by the lack of turnout honestly. People have already voted with their wallets by leaving that club and that was only $115-$150. You think people are ready to fork over $750+ to the VCA?? Highly doubtful

    I'm not a VCA member and haven't been for a few years. My screen name is FLATOUT not FLAT OUT

    I voted with my wallet and do gladly support the VOA.

    Should be interesting to see the turnout. I doubt it will be high.

    I too remember it being a VCA member's only event in the past and not open to all Viper owners. I could be wrong.

    It was a joke, maybe a bad/lame one.

    You could go as a nonmember, but you had to pay extra which turned out to be about the same as a one year membership.

    VOA Homecoming July 18-20, 2014

    "Twenty years ago in July, Chrysler hosted the first Viper homecoming in Auburn Hills, which became the Viper Owners Invitational. Since this club is going back to its roots, we thought it would be appropriate to re-live the original homecoming as our first national gathering.

    Chrysler is opening the doors to the Viper plant and their facilities to us and we're heading back to Auburn Hills for the weekend of July 19th. Like the first VOI, this event will not be a track-oriented event, but a social gathering. See how the Viper is built, take a lap around the high-speed oval of their test track, and join us for a cruise to the German town of Frankenmuth. (We're making this spouse friendly.) Of course, every night, there'll be a dinner so you can party with your Viper friends!

    Since most of you don't want to stay in downtown Detroit, we've booked the Marriott hotel in Auburn Hills as our headquarters hotel, about 30 miles north of Detroit, in the shadow of Chrysler's headquarters and the Walter P. Chrysler Museum. It's not only cheaper there, but the neighborhood is nicer! These are regular-sized hotels, not Casinos, so we'll only be able to accommodate around 500 people in the ballroom. Sign up early if you want to come! Details will follow, but mark your calendar. It's gonna be a fun time!"

    All the fine details are being worked out.
