<font color="brown"> Here is the info on the event.
For those driving in or flying in the best way to plan is the caravan (Vipers/busses) leaves the hotel Friday at 4:00 for the reception so get checked in well before that.
There are things going on through Sunday late afternoon so you can stay the night and leave Monday or fly out late Sunday.
The more detailed event info/schedule is being mailed this week</font>
Get ready for the rematch the Viper Club has been waiting for! The Dogfight in the Desert, Round Four! With MORE VENOM than ever, the new 600hp Dodge Viper SRT10 and the Viper Competition Coupe will drag race the Air Force “Viper” Fighter Jet F-16. This showdown is part of a weekend-long event taking place March 23-25, 2007, at Luke Air Force Base located just outside Phoenix, Arizona. Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the USAF, Luke has been selected for an expanded “Super Air-Show” program by the military coined “The Show of Force”. Your weekend also includes the following:
<ul type="square"> [*] Friday night reception and Saturday night dinner (both with the Thunderbirds and stunt pilots),
[*]Lunch coupons for Saturday and Sunday
[*]VIP seating for the air show and drag race on Saturday and Sunday <font color="brown">( For the prior years this seating was the best available for the show - bar none - and I expect the same this year) </font> and
[*]Commemorative T-Shirts and specially minted Viper coins. [/list]
A Viper Corral will be set up at the Air Force Base for our Vipers to park. However, due to heightened security, your vehicles (Vipers only) will remain parked onsite from Friday evening’s reception until Sunday after the air show. Bus transportation will be provided (for those who leave their vehicles parked) between the hotel and the air base on Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday. The cost for the entire event is just $200 per registration (this covers up to two attendees) with all the proceeds going to Luke Air Force Base charities. There is a limit of 100 cars and 200 hundred people, so sign up now! It is not a requirement that you bring your car, but in the event we are over capacity, preference will be given to those who bring their Vipers.
This is your chance to be the first to check out the new ’08 Viper and see it in action, hang out with Viper friends, and support our troops. Whether you are flying in or driving, this event will give you a weekend of packed in fun.
The deadline for registration is February 28, 2007.
Your hotel reservation must be made separately with the Sheraton Crescent Hotel in Phoenix, AZ. Please contact them directly at (800) 325-3535 Make sure you tell them you are with the Viper Club to receive the special discounted rate of $169 per night, plus tax at the Sheraton Crescent Hotel in Phoenix AZ.
