Said volunteers will obtain the specific parts necessary to complete these jobs, noting that the fluids can be purchased at Champion. Mr. Jay will be compensated by the Club.
There will also be a demo on changing oil and lubricating door hinges.

The Tech Session and Shine Clinic were both a huge success !!! Ron Fleming did his usual "over the top" job with this one!!

The IN/KY VCA Membership had a good turnout, and were shown a full brake job (new rotors, pads, fluid), and a battery change on a Gen I Viper.

We also watched a radiator hose /coolant change on another Gen I Viper.

Several observed resetting the TPM system on the beautiful 2006 VCA Raffle Coupe using a DRB III.

Our Club President, Kurt Broderick, amazed folks with his skills using a buffer to remove front fascia "curb rash" and bug marks !!!

Techs Michael Jay and Gary Myers answered at least a million questions while they worked, noting that Viper Service Writer Jason Shores was in attendance for the full session as well.

The formal meeting was short, and there was plenty of pizza.

SPECIAL THANKS are owed to Champion Dodge's owner Fernando Falcon and his entire staff for opening their fine facility to us and for extending first class "Hoosier Hospitality" to our group.
