Another New Viper Owner

[1MEANSNAKE]

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to take some time and introduce myself to the Forums.

My name is Mike Baxter and i just picked up my All Red 1997 Viper GTS with only 6K original miles from the original owner this past Saturday.

I live in Maryland on the Chesapeake Bay and after searching for months and months i finally found just the right Viper in Jacksonville, NC

It was 300 miles from where i live so i decided to drive it home

Well as fate would have it and Johnny law, i received a ticket for 81 in a 65 in Richmond, VA.

The funny thing about that was that i had my Brother behind me in my Truck and vehicles in front of me and around me............The state Trooper figured decided to pick me out of the crowd. (Honestly-Does the Red Viper stand out that much from the rest )

I've been on the board for a short time and hope to make it out to some of the events listed on the board.

Thanks,
Mike Baxter
