I went to my first cruise night on Thursday at C.J.Barrymores. Lots of Vettes, Camaros and Stangs but only 1 Viper, that be me.
Do the MotorCity Vipers get together at any cruise nights?

I am often the only one when I attend as well. I am at a large show today, and yes I have the only Viper.

We are going to have about a dozen of them next Sunday in Gretna NE for a large car show.

Check out the MCVO web site. They get together about once a month in the summer for cruise nights. I havent been to one yet but plan on going later this year. Since getting my Viper in the spring, I've went to 4 or 5 cruise nights with it in the Troy area. I have yet to see another Viper. But like you said, plenty of vets and camaros etc. I don't feel like i get the warmest of welcomes from the vet guys :). Also I usually stop in my DD anytime I see a car show just to check out the cars and haven't seen any Vipers there either.
I have only seen 2 Vipers on the road this year, and that's about average for me, 2-3 sightings a year.
What kind of turn out is there at C.J.Barrymores, do allot of cars show up?

Thanks Troybax, I look forward to seeing you at an event soon. There were at least 100 cars at CJ's on Thursday. A pretty good turn-out i think.
I saw two Vipers driving around my area (Macomb Twp.) in the last couple of weeks. A red w/white stripes and a blue w/ white stripes I think they were both GTS's but not sure.

I am on the West side of the state (Muskegon/Grand Haven) I own a DJ company and Viper GTS and actually seen TWO other Vipers. On top of that both were 96 blut GTS's???? I never seen any GTS's let alone two....weird.

Message me if your going to be on the west side.

FYI the car show was Jaycee's in Grand Haven.

I sent each of you in our area a message. We were out last year more, but the heat has kept us home past few weeks. Taking an evening drive or meeting at a local show would be great. Also any interest in parking together on Dream Cruse Saturday? Would still need to find a spot though.....................

Met with smf79 Friday night in Pontiac for their Friday night car show. It was in front of Bo's Smokehouse which allowed you to sit, eat dinner and have a drink while watching your car and the people walking around. Pontiac has been very enjoyable every time we have gone there past couple of years. Checked out the Gratiot Cruise today, saw just a handful of Vipers, the weather was beautiful and we enjoyed spending time with another Viper owner.

Welcome to the club Nick. As the group told me when I first posted " pictures are a must". Let's check out your sweet ride. What did you buy? Our area is represented well in the club. I know of 5 Vipers including mine in the Macomb/Shelby area. We should have a strong presence at local car shows. We are going to an event tonight at the Chysler Museum and then may go to downtown Pontiac for a car show. I went last Friday night at was nice. Next week the MCVO are getting together Thursday night on Woodward. Hope to meet you guys soon.

I have my Viper at my SHOP (B&G Chrysler Specialists) in Warren, MI. Heck stop by anytime I will take it out for a cruise.. Or just stop by to tech talk....Heck the parking lot is big enough for a Viper gathering..
