Well here I am, a proud new owner of a 03 SRT 10. I upgraded from a Subaru STI that was heavily modified. I love the car. Its a little snug for my height, but liveable. The power delivery is incredible. Handling is magnificent and looks are stunning. It was a tough choice between a Corvette, Viper or a Porsche. But the Viper won me hands down.

I know there are some other owners in the Beaverton/ Hillsboro area and would like to meet them.

Best way to do that is look under Members section for the contact information of your Regional VCA President. He can hook you up with a schedule of events and get your VCA membership going.

Congratulations!

You should be hearing from Gary from either the Oregon or Washington clubs shortly. If you go to the Oregon club site there are a couple of things that some Vipers will be attending. I'll either go to the Griot's garage event in Washington or to the Mopar Nationals in Woodburn.

I just bought an '09 coupe that is currently @ Prefix in Michigan for some modifications. I haven't even seen the car yet. Can't wait to get it.

Roseburg. This is my 3rd Viper having previously owned an '02 ACR and an '02 Daytona24 FE. Another fellow up here just got an '08 coupe to add to his Viper collection. We're thinking about heading up to the Griot's Garage/autocross in mid July. Want to come?

Shoot, I was just in Roseburg for the 4A baseball all star games at Legion Field! Summer time is baseball time for me....July is the busiest month of all....would like to but not this year. Did see a black Viper driving around Klamath Falls though the other day. Guess I am not the only one in town. Thanks for the offer.

Hi there, I'm over in Milwaukie and have a '97 GTS. I'm always down to meet up to BS or for a drive or whatever.
I also came from a heavily modded 04 STI (450 AWHP on pump gas/****). Then had an 02 996 for a while. But nothing compars to the Viper!
Shoot me a message anytime!

Kyle

We'll be attending the Griot's function in a couple of weeks in the new (to me) '08 coupe. I wish I knew you were in the market for an '03 Black Convertible, as mine is for sale. I'm hoping for a good turnout. Looking forward to meeting you!

I'm planning on hitting the Griot's function as well. I'll be driving up friday evening and seeing some friends in Olympia on Sat. Then meeting up with the group on Sunday.

Anyone else leaving on Friday evening (after traffic, 6:30ish)? Caravan?
