But like Jon said, stock fabric RT/10s tops look like crap. I may have 3rd degree burns, but hey I never had to ride around with that stupid top on 
I borrowed lotion from Missy on the NIGHT of day 3. I think it was too late by then
Yeah, what was up with that scorched piece of flesh hanging from your face, some people might call it a nose?!
Looks like you all had a "little" more fun than I did this weekend.
. . Driving straight line and small easy turns are usually ok. So after I realized I might have an issue, I gave a good friend a call(JD) to see if he had one and if he could Fedex it to me. He had recently upgraded to a billet pulley and was going to throw out the cheap plastic one, BUT it's amazing how valuable it is to some one in dire need . Since the GA Prez(******'s Chad) was going to see him just before leaving for the, Joseph said he would pass it on and that I would have it the next day 
. 
. I hear a pop and notice my P/S has gone bu-bye and the temp gauge is on the rise
. On goes the hazards and pull over as I watch everybody go by . . He gives his friend Jason (Randy's Customs) a call to help me get back on the road. He shows up just before I get the pump off the car and takes his Saturday morning to cut/press the insert off the shaft of the P/S pump. We first tried to use an impact to press it out, but no dice 
. He got an air cut off wheel and took off the lip of the insert, then put the pump in a 20 ton press to break it loose! Unbelievable! I don't know why it was so difficult, but was happy to see it come off! I have change out a few pulleys with a puller on the car and never had THAT much trouble. But two minutes later, Jason had the replacement pulley from Joseph on the pump, and I was ready to go!. I can't say enough about the help I received from the many people(JD, John, Chad, Matt and especially Jason) that took their time to help me get back on the road. If not for them, I would still be in Pigeon Forge sitting on my butt. And Jason from Randy's Custom's would not take anything for his efforts! The help I received was priceless and all he would take was a thanks and a handshake. Although I wanted to give the guy a 
, I figured it would look a little 
. So thanks to JD, john, Chad, Matt at Speedwerks and Jason from Randy's Customs!!!!!!! You guys are why I love the Viper nation so much 
I was relieved when it was just a p/s pulley Have you called Big Brake Dave yet for the billet aluminum kit? 858-382-4713 . Oh yeah, so that's what those little badge thingy's we get with our membership are forI guess it's a good event when there's so many people there you can't remember who you have or haven't talked to
See you at VOI! Be sure to bring a car that works! 
Never seen so many busted Vipers before?!
Yeah, but you can't include member who can get home to switch out the troubled car with another in less than 20 minutes
Hopefully it will work out for the family and we can be up there before X-Mas, but we'll have to wait and see. How is the winter Viper driving in east TN? to meeting all of you who showed up from GA/TN/AL Viper Club. we had a blast, met a lot of cool people and can not wait to do it again..... I'm sure we will make it to Tonys BBQ in July. If you are a member here and have never gone to a local event, I strongly suggest it. thanks to Chad for inviting us. Chip and Lisa for being really cool. Tony, Jon, Bruce and anyone else I forgot, for letting our children and myself catch a ride in your cars. we all had a blast!
Thanks again, you guys rock!!

I think ya'lls SSG was 1 of the most popular cars there. I know I enjoyed it everytime Missy let me hit the panic button when people got near it C-ya at Tony's!
Once again, thank you so much for letting me and my family tag along! I can honestly say that we met the greatest people this weekend. Everyone was very kind to us and our kids. You made their weekend great. They can't wait for Tony's BBQ now.
And to prove how much fun they had, I caught my daughter on the VCA forum site today. She's been snake-bit! Now she wants one of her own!
This is the best car club in the world!!!!
This is the best car club in the world!!!!
Don't be bashful. (nothing incriminating, though) If you're in VA, give us a shout. AmyRepost from the RT 10/GTS section, but I wanted everybody to know how cool some of the people that helped me in my time of need are!
Wrong, trying to get that metal insert off was one of the biggest pain in the a$$. I actually broke off the lip on the pulley insert because it was on so tight. This is where Matt at Speedwerkz comes to the rescue
We got back to the car and 20 minutes later, I was good to go
I'm glad it all worked out Jason was thrilled to help btw. I really enjoyed hanging out with everyone that was a BLAST!! You need to head up again and we'll hit the dragon with full forceWell, we definitely had a blast this weekend! Thanks to everyone for being so cool; we met a lot of great people! I think Eric's happy to see me enjoying myself so much around the cars...who knows, maybe I'll end up just as "car-crazy" as him.
Yeah, but you can't include member who can get home to switch out the troubled car with another in less than 20 minutes
And have a choice of which one to switch it out with!
I'm down to three what do ya want
