[Jeff Torrey]

Guys- This years Auto-Cross Program Starts on Saturday August 4th @ FT. Devens in Shirley, MA

You need to Pre-Register for the event. This is a joint event with the SVT Mustang Cobra Club, the advantage being that they set up the course. For Viper Club members it's an arrive and drive situation.

These events do sell out, so please register ASAP.

Here is the link for Registering: http://www.svtcobraclub.com/indexfiles/2007-SCMC-FT_Devens-AutoX.pdf Print it out, fill it out and mail it in with a check.

The contact person at the SVT Cobra Club is Pat Madigan [email protected] ...or direct your questions to Tim Cloutier : [email protected]

* Please contact Tim to let him know you are interested. We're hoping for 6-10 Vipers to participate. Everyone who has done the Auto-Cross at FT Devens has had a blast! It's 3 miles of airport runway, perfect for letting your Viper loose. Without putting yourself or your car at risk. Basically you get 4 runs in the morning, break for lunch... and do 4 runs in the afternoon.

Hey Guys, I just got an update from Pat Madigan from the Cobra club who is running the Auto-x on Saturday at Ft. Devens in Ma. There are still a few spots left for Saturday, Aug 4th. If anyone is interested who hasn't signed up let me know ASAP and I may be able to get you in. Hurry!!! This is a great course set up for cobra's, vette's, and vipers. There is instructor, Paul, who also is a viper owner, who will ride with you and give you pointers if you want. This is a great opportunity to really drive your Viper. The course is about 1 1/2
miles in length. Top speed can reach over 80mph. This is great for an Auto-x course. See you guys on Saturday. Tim

Shawn
That was sweet. For all that didn't make it , it was an awesome time. I think it was a 200 degrees out on the track, it was HOT!!!!!!! .Didn't get all the results, But I think shawn beat me by 1/10 of a second, that was not without the handicap 3 seconds I owe him.DAMM there is always next year. Shawn you did a real nice job as usual on the video. If you didn't make it you should try to make next year, we had the most viper there this year. I think about 10 vipers.
