Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!
Like it says...
Post your snow pictures! Texans no need to apply, this is not your thread. That includes you too, Kurt!  (We KNOW you can drive year round...)

Re: Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!
Sorry--we don't bring our Viper out to play in the snow~~our driveway is steep, so just taking it OUT of the garage, we'd end up sliding down into the ditch!! We'll get it out when there's NO snow/salt...enjoy your time in the snow...but get that Viper back to bed!
LOL~~~juli

Re: Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!
 Sorry for the small pic and poor quality (no digital back then). It was the winter of '94 and my kids and I got the urge to make a snow schulpture. Our house is off the road 500 ft and we got calls wondering why our Viper was out in the front yard. We had it exactly to shape within fractions of an inch (yah, right) but it did get rained on before paint.

Re: Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!
Drove my 98 Roe supercharged GTS from Illinois to central BC last Feb. Got a really dirty going through the Rockies. Washed it 200mi. from home and it was good when I hid it in the garage 'til spring.
 Got chased by a Blizzard dumping 12" of fresh snow a day behind me all the way to Montana.

Re: Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!
Bought my 01 GTS in Aug and it was parked in the garage before the snow fell, I just switched the insurance over to storage.
Vipers are the absolute worst cars I've ever driven in the snow and ice. Spun out twice on ice covered highway while just cruising and had to tie ropes around my tires to get the car to move on flat ground (driveway). When I arrived home with the 98 I had to tow it 1/8mi. of my driveway with the wife's Escape - and she'd not about to EVER allow me to forget that!  Since they don't make any snow tires for the Viper and the performance tires are summer's only, it's not much wonder why these cars are the worst to drive in winter. After 32F they're like driving on steel rims. I suppose that if someone had to they could buy some Dakota rims and put a set of ice radials on them, ... but why? Ferrari's vette's and Porsche's must all be equal fun. That's why I have a Stealth R/T TT with all wheel drive and all wheel steering - fastest supercar in BC during winter! Ted
