Ran into guy with 1 of the 2 automatic Vipers!

[Sniper]

He was a very cool guy! He's got, I believe, a black 98 RT/10 with tinted out windows-Cool car. Seen him drive by so I honked and he pulled over so we could talk. Never thought I'd see an auto Viper!

 

[GTSREDDOG]

Your done the road from me. Where did you see this car and is it local??
Thanks

 

[GTSREDDOG]

typo I meant down the road. Just typing too fast

 

[Sniper]

Reddog-

Yes, he is local. And I met him here in town on what we call the Belt. How far are you away from St. Joseph? Are you in the K.C. VCA?

 

[GTSREDDOG]

Matt I am 20 miles south of Festus. Are you on Hwy 67 or 32 by any chance near Flat River or Farmington? We should meet sometime

 

[Sniper]

Reddog-

Looked Festus up on the map and you are about 7 hours away from me! You're right below St. Louis and I'm right above Kansas City.

Neon-

No, the auto transmission is not factory. If I remember right, I think Hennessy built it and he had to take it to Woodhouse to have them do it right.

Joe,

I think I read about this guy in Viper Quarterly. Awesome story, and of course he does not qualify for the laziness comment above.

Later

 

[Joseph Houss]

That's the guy!

Gentlemen:

Now I'm REALLY confused.

Here our speed limit is seldom more tha 50 MPH. I thought I BOUGHT an automatic. Are you telling me that I actually have more than the one gear I've been using!!!??? This is GREAT!!! I'm gonna check this out right now!

Festus???? I remember him from Gunsmoke. I would have thought that Festus had assumed room temperature by now.

I thought he was the uncle on The Adams Family...or was it The Munsters?

You ran into Aaron, who is indeed a very cool guy. Not only does he have an automatic Viper, but you should also check out his sound system. It could very well be the best one in the Viper Kingdom, and I know that is saying a lot. He is a DJ on weekends and is serious about his tunes. He also has some cool lighting on it as well. Oh, and Aaron went the automatic route due to physical limitations - definitely not lazy!

[Sniper]

Yes, that was his name, Aaron!

Viperholics,

Changing a Manual to an Automatic in a Viper? This should be forbidden unless the driver is physically disabled. Kinda like on the PGA Tour. Golf Carts are not allowed except for medical conditions.

P.S. - Laziness is not a medical condition.

Actually,

Gary (NJ auto viper) IS handicapped. And his auto can run a 12.5! No clutch, No shifting!

VERY COOL!
