Viper the enemy? More like a relative? The Porsche would be the enemy! (I am only kidding but it is nice to see people getting along regardless of which car they drive).

How embarrising! Good reason to dump the Viper Dude & get a real Car!

How fitting, this happened in front of the now bankrupt Levitz furniture. How much longer before Dodge pulls Viper? It's been a nice 15 years, but time to put the bat car away Robin.

I have to show this to my uncle who owns a Viper.

Thanks for the pic.

The funny thing is, as soon as everyone saw what was going on in the parking lot, you would have thought Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan, et al, where walking by. Everyone with a camera started to snap away! It was a paparazzi moment. Everyone there had a good laugh. Even the Viper owner.

At least that's how I feel. I'd even help a P-car if needed. We might have some sarcastic fun with other makes of sports cars, but in the end, it's still those of us with sports cars that are different from the general public.

Sort of like the Marines give the Navy a hard time. But when crunch time comes, it would be Marines/Navy agains Army/Air Force. But when the real fight comes, we are all Americans and do it all together.

I am certain it was the Viper guy. I saw him with a yellow nylon pouch that had the cables in them. He took them out of his trunk.

The infamous Willa. His name will live on forever.

As far as that pic, that's the way it should be. Shouldn't it be America versus the world? I never understood why Vettes and Vipers couldn't party in the same Frat.
