V.C.O. NEWSLETTER
Viper Club of Ontario
Publisher  JEFF GREENVolume No. 2Issue No.1Date  Sept 2004




A MESSAGE FROM YOUR PRESIDENT

Firstly, hope everyone is having a great summer so far.  There will be a change to our monthly News Letter,
as it will be issued quarterly rather than monthly, starting this issue.
With the existing email list, members can still send out their message for quick communication.  As always,
please provide Jeff with your Viper stories, mods/encounters for the next issue of the News Letter.

It's almost time to join hundreds of fellow Viper at the VOI.8, Sep.8-12th, Dallas Texas. which occurs once every two years, and hosted by Dodge.
The Ontario Club will be well represented at this event,   Participants will get the rare opportunity to attend the technical seminars, which are hosted by Dodge engineers and their executives, as well as all the partying they can handle. There will be few surprises at this event, and hopefully the long awaited Gen.111 GTS is among them!!

This summer has gone by so quickly, however we still have two scheduled
events after the VOI.8.  The Exotic Cars Lapping Day at the end of Sep.,
and hopefully the track owners have resolved the noise issue by now.
We also, have the Niagara on the Lake cruise ( Brunch / Casino) in
Oct., date yet to be confirmed.  Safe journey, especially to those members
who are driving to Texas.

Nabil

REPORTS ON LAST MONTHS EVENTS


The trip to Quebec city was nice mainly because of the interaction of the two clubs, as language was not a barrier.  We spoke the Viper language which everyone understand its called HP, Torq and superchargers.  Thanks to the Quebec Club, for organizing the Hotel, Dinners, places to visit and the security which was provided around the clock for the Vipers.  French food is good, portions are small I guess that is a relative term, however you still walk out satisfied and not too full. Now I know why they are in good shape!  Next year we will invite the Quebec Region to Ontario and have them for the weekend something to go in our planning in Feb.











WHAT WERE YOU GUYS THINKING!!!






It was a beautiful day to enjoy the outdoors at the Tomiks Horse Farm.  Many
thanks to Jack , Louise & son Steven, as they were most gracious, and
generous.   Xmas came early this year!! Santa dropped a bag full of goodies
in each Viper this afternoon....Thanks Santa.  We hope to see you guys on
our future outings soon.
