was expecting to see plenty of sub 30 year old owners, but didnt really notice that many. Our region ranged from the youngest baby faced *** upto Steve who I guess is in the mid 60's, so is the viper in generally owned by 'old farts' ? :D

I think the average age was between 50 and 70 :)

Kevin is an exception.
Actually his age lowered the average.
Without Kevin the average would have been between 60 and 80 :)

old farts? is there any part of f#%* you that you don't understand.
On a serious note, I think that the young owners are more in tune with the web sites and therefore more vocal here but older owners probable prevail in numbers, as was evident at VOI.

I have to add that the event wasn't so pricy however the service and food provided was very average. You eat better in Cuba than at Billy's ...

We took 2 weeks off with my wife and had a lot of fun around Texas. We have visited Kentucky, Tennessee, New Orleans ... We skipped Texas and I think we will never go back there ...


VOI:
Registration 2x800$
Hotel: 4x160 = 640$
Fuel: 700$

Avergae age seemed to be in the forties. I agree with the food at Billy-Bob's. Food at Voi was average and the last night got better. I think for people coming from 2k miles the cost is like this.

VOI:
registration 2 x $800
hotel 5 x $220
airfare free miles
but if not 2 x $350
Reliable transport $1,650
cash $300
memorabilia $400
raffle car $200

grand total $6,000 for two people

That is why it is proably average age of forties

Seemed to be a bit older crowd this year than past VOI's I've attended. I'm 34 and didn't see a lot of people my age (or younger) there. However, I don't care if I talk to a 20 or 70 year old owner, as long as they're fun to be around! :) I'd guess the avg age at 45 at VOI8

I like to think of it as more experienced not older. I myself am 25 with 28 years of experience.

CTVIPER, I was wondering if you were sitting at my table at the banquet, did you win the 05 centerpiece that night?

AJT --- I sat with a father and his 2 sons from Texas! Along with 2 guys i met from AZ!! It might have been you! Barry was the one who actually won the centerpiece because he drove in! I flew in to pick up my VCA Special edition! He offered it to me because i had the yellow VCA car! I told him you keep the Viper and i'll take the center piece part. I have a yellow one just like it home and i'll use that one!!

38 yrs old for me, and 39 yrs old for the wife. There were 4 or 6 in our group of owners that are sub 40.

These young bucks getting a Viper at 23 and younger is pretty cool. I don't even think there was a Viper when I was 23.

It took me until I was 35 to get my first one. But, I've now had 3, and currently own 2. So I guess I kinda made up for lost time.

I thought that I saw quite a few 35 yr old to 40 yr old owners there.

But age is just a state of mind!
