We have a wedding to attend at 1pm, but would like to join for breakfast, and maybe part of the cruise.

~Jay & Jennifer

I'm in, as long as you guys are okay with me driving the CTS-V since I no longer have a street Viper.

Ben,  You're always welcomed even if you were driving a Pinto and we had to push you uphill >w

It turns out that the wedding is in the evening. We can join you for the cruise and lunch.

Welcome!  I'm told you are from the Santa Barbara area.  I'm in Goleta - one of the furthest North in the club.  Sorry didn't get a chance to meet you both on the cruise.  Nice to know there are TWO 1996's in the area!  I'll tell the cops it was YOUR car they saw - not mine.  =15  Maybe we can encourage more people up here to buy Vipers and participate in the events.

Unfortunately not very many pictures taken.  The few I did take are up on my site: www.kouchicentral.com (http://www.kouchicentral.com)

It wasn't too bad of a drive.  I had to pull off to get gas.  I made it to my shop where Ben was waiting for me around 3:30.  It was a very loooong day.
We stayed at the ALMS race till about 6:00.  From there I went to meet Lori and the girls at Kaci's school function for dinner and got home around 9:00.

Here are a few of the pictures:

Haha, nice.  Thanks!  And I'll be sure to keep a pic of your car AND you in the visor to share with them as I wave the picture back and forth at high speed, "You sure it wasn't THIS GUY you saw?"

QuoteMaybe we can encourage more people up here to buy Vipers and participate in the events.

Absolutely.  I've seen a red GEN I RT/10 a couple times and believe I know where he lived as well (saw it in the garage from the street), but haven't seen it there or on the streets in a couple years.  Otherwise, I've seen no other Vipers since I've lived here (7 years).

Great pics, thanks for that (I didn't get enough of my own).  Also, if you would be so kind as to make one correction by changing my name from Curtis to Marcus, I'd appreciate it!  <t   Otherwise, I'm going to be okay with it if the name catches on.  <11

My bad......I was so tired when I posted this last night after a very loooong weekend that I didn't even catch it.   I'll fix my website when I get home tonight.

Thanks for another great event!  Breakfast was relaxing and delicious. The cruise was nice, even if we sort of got a little lost and confused.

Looking forward to the next one.
