2023 Viper Rendezvous XIV

[13COBRA]

June 8-11
Hastings, NE

Who all is going? It's unfortunate that this is the same weekend as the Viper Racing League at Road America, I understand that there aren't enough weekends in the year to not have any conflicts, but I do feel like this is one that should have been avoided.

As of now, I'm planning on going to Rendezvous and am already registered. Depending on the entries though, I may end up in Wisconsin.

Road America has BRAND NEW PAVEMENT all the way around, plus the pit lane!

I can't make either so really bummed out.

That is a bummer. I'm excited I can finally make a Rendezvous. Usually I'm out of town the same weekend, but this coming year they're back to back weeks.

Nick,

I'm planning on going to Hastings please no rain!!! 1400+ miles each way!!!

Surely it won't rain...maybe snow...but no rain haha

If I could get enough interested for that Monday/Tuesday, I could reach out to my buddy who owns Ozarks International Raceway and see if I could set up a Viper event there.

Bummed they fell on the same week.

It's a shame they happened to be on the same weekend and further, the same weekend as Le Mans which happens to be the big 100th anniversary.

I didn't even realize that, guess I'll need to pack a TV.

I am going to try and make it as well. If I do I'd definitely be interested in OIR..! My plan would be to hit a few different tracks out that way over a few months time. I want to take the Coach to the Factory in Indiana as well for some warranty work as well. Kevin @EE is working on my engine build now (Should be done by March!).
May need to invest in "Traction Control"

[Simms]

VRL for me.

[13COBRA]

VRL for me.

I imagine your whole CPM crew will go that direction as well?

It's never rained at Hastings when I've been there. It's insanely hot though, I'm not used to that humidity.

Midwest humidity is wild haha

Are you going to Rendezvous or VRL?

[Simms]

Yes Sir, to my knowledge since most run the race group.

Totally understandable. Unfortunate, I was looking forward to meeting you guys!

I do that in Texas with 3 nomex layers and no cool suit. But not in a racecar.

I gave up my Coolshirt for this year.

Likewise!

You will get far more time on the track at Rendezvous but can get wheel to wheel racing at Viper Racing League. It will be stupid hot at Rendezvous but the track was freshly paved last year and is fast. Road America is an awesome track to run but is very dangerous. Both events will have plenty of Vipers at them and both events are put on by amazing people. Can't go wrong with either. Would just choose on what type of driving you want to do.

I've never went wheel-to-wheel in my Viper, I just run Time Trials.

Besides the fact that Road America would be a much more fun track to run at, everything else is pointing me towards Hastings.

I am going to try and get to some event at Road America this year.

When you find one...let me know, I'd be interested in coming as well! Especially if it doesn't coincide with another track day I have.

We had the Viper Days Reunion last year at Road America. It was an incredible event, and it is AMAZING track to drive. You owe yourself an event there if you haven't ever driven on it.
