This morning the Weather Channel showed much rain over Nashville on Thursday and Friday from the tropical storm moisture in the Gulf. Ususally they are wrong, I hope.

Re: it\'s not supposed to rain.........

Re: it\'s not supposed to rain.........

While I share your weather concerns (noting I had a "flight-to remember" from Nashville as it got caught in the tail of "Hugo"), the rain WOULD NOT stop me from taking our Vipers to VOI.7. I DO WISH that there was covered parking, but there are SO MANY other outstanding features about this location, that I think most will be QUITE pleased. Hope to see you there 1!!

Re: it\'s not supposed to rain.........

i was at this hotel last year for a convention, and yes, the hotel and Nashville in general is quite awesome. but as this is my first ever Viper outing, i wasn't sure how much fun it would be participating in all the scheduled events if it's pouring out.

The NOAA (National Weather Service) shows a 40% chance of rain on Wednesday & Thursday, slight chance on Friday, and partly sunny over the weekend. Getting better!

PS. And if you have never seen your Viper windshield wipers in action, it is pretty amusing!

Look at it this way, If it rains all the time we wont need to dust them off every 30 minutes.

Re: it\'s not supposed to rain.........

One of my fondest (and stupidest) memories of me in the Viper was racing on the highway with a bunch of other GTS's heading back from the "scenic cruise". It was me, 2 blue/white GTS's and a black GTS. We were easily cruising at 140+mph, and then the rain hit - it POURED. I never knew a Viper could travel at 100+mph in pouring rain.

I was 22 at the time and not as wise as I am now

I wonder who the other guys were - are you boys on this board? Did the spanking layed down by the silver snake hurt at all?
