Hello Viper fam!

Can't believe we're in April already. This year is flying by. Many thanks to all who have renewed for 2023. You are the lifeblood of this club and it wouldn't exist without you. Viper Quarterly magazine should be out soon. To those of you who want the magazine, please renew for 2023 @ www.driveviper.com

Viper Quarterly is the only Viper magazine in print.

If you don't know your member number for the renewal, I can get it for you.

Here's a quick list of cool events going on in the near future...

Tour of National Parts Depot's private vintage 600+ car collection, lunch, and cruise in beautiful Ocala FL on Saturday April 22nd beginning at 9:30AM

Lunch will be covered by the Central Florida VOA for driver and passenger of a Viper! The address is 900 SW 38th Ave, Ocala FL 34474. We'll hang out for a little while in the parking lot and then head inside for the tour. The cruise will follow and then lunch in downtown Ocala. My plan is for all of us to park our Vipers at the top of the parking garage for some cool pictures before lunch.

Here is a quick sneak peek of the collection from February when Dick Winkles was in town and wanted something to do!

The next event is the Festival of Speed at the World Equestrian Center also in Ocala Florida on May 6th

There is a large horse show later in the day after the car show. If you would like your Viper in the show and/or be judged please see this link: https://www.festivalsofspeed.com/veh...-registration/

I entered my Viper during the last Festival of Speed and had a great time displaying the car.

Next, there is a track day that will be held at the FIRM on May 28th.

The track day is being hosted by Drive Florida. Run groups will be split into Novice, intermediate, and Advance with 20 minute sessions. Instructors will be available.

This is a private track day. Vehicles must pass tech. Track insurance is recommended! I have used Hagerty in the past. This is not a VOA sponsored event, but I'll be there with my Viper and I encourage anyone who has always wanted to experience their Viper on a closed course to give it a try! If you combine their Driver's club membership with the track day and use a discount code: $99TRACKDAY you'll receive $150 off the track day! Otherwise it's $249. The track is located in Starke FL.

Finally, I would like to announce that VOA member Angel Bonet has been selected to be the new Central Florida Regional Vice President. Angel has owned many Vipers in the past and currently owns Black Gen V and Gen III vipers. He will help out with event planning and overall member assistance.

I will need a headcount for the NPD tour. Please respond to this thread or send me a txt/call/email.

Looking forward to seeing yall!
