something a bit different
For the last few years I have attended the swiss Corvette club's Corvette and Viper meet at Hockenheim in Germany. I've posted photos of this event in the past and it really is a great weekend of Corvettes, Vipers and the odd muscle car. However this year the event did not go ahead. we usually travel to this event with a friend of mine, Paul - a Viper owner and prsident of the UK Viper club. Earlier this year the UK Viper club were invited to a German Viper club event which included a day at an unused airbase. Knowing the Hockenheim meet was off Paul managed to get me a place at this event. It was a fantastic time and I was really made to feel welcome by the German and UK Viper owners. The old 368 also managed to turn a few heads at the airbase as well........sounded the best as well
 It looked like a may not run at the airfield when an official arrived to noise test the cars. Mine was the loudest there and already one had been failed but somehow the German members got rid of him and the misty day turned into a fantastic day of sun, cars, cars and more cars. Am I a Viper convert? Well I do like the new Vipers but the Z wouldn't go to make room for one. Maybe one day I'll have a V8 and a V10  Here's a 10 min video, turn up the speakers and enjoy http://corvetteclips.co.uk/site%20pics/German%20VOI.wmv http://corvetteclips.co.uk/ViperTrip.html

Re: something a bit different
That was great to watch and listen to. A lone ZR-1 among a pit of Vipers.

Re: something a bit different
That was so cool! Thanks for posting the vid. Looks like all had a blast playing with their toys!
Looks to me as if your Z held it's own quite nicely among all the snakes!
