Great pics Tom. It was quite an adventure. Great memories from this event. Who could forget the single elevator for so many cars, OR the hallway turn with one inch of clearance driving down level 400 from the elevator. OR the Dupont Registry crowd and their accursed video right behind us. We shared that floor with "The 50 years of history of the Shelby club and the Porsche Club." I know the rest of you here know who got the most attention compared to those brands. The show promoters knew too, they had the Vipers displayed right at the top of the escalator. MAJOR, MAJOR props to Gary Almond, who really came through for us. On friday the first warning of a major snowstorm came to light. I made one phone call to Gary and he put the pedal down to get back to Baltimore for his VA/MD crew. Gary hauled 6 Vipers out of the convention center from 10pm Sunday night to 4pm on Monday, delivering them all over Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. He probably got 2 hours sleep if he was lucky. Thanks again Gary! Everyone is very grateful for the rescue you pulled off!

Tom, thanks for the photos, mine didn't turn out as well. I was hoping to see you there but I did see your car and it looked Awesome as always. I had a great time and we were glad to hear you had a clean ride home in the snow thanks to Gary.

As a testimonial to Tom's picture taking skills notice the lighting in the second picture. Tom and I had just brought his car in, all the lights are on. That was the normal lighting for the show. All the other pictures were taken at VIP night where they had the lighting turned down very low for the coctail party. The Bar was right behind us and the food buffet across from us. I have no idea how he took those pics in that low light but I PMd him and asked for photography lessions!

Please tell me someone remembered to grab that sign in the first pic.

What sign?

Pretty good showing of Vipers.

I have to admit it was a really fun time. I wish I had gone to sleep the night before so I could have stayed later, but at the 30 hour mark I was wasted. I will say that my perception of who a typical viper-lover is now totally blown and nothing makes a weekend more complete then getting blackmail material about Dale from his girlfriend.
