We are going to have at least three cars at TWS from Oklahoma ... Going to be a blast! Skip, Courtney and the crew do a great job.

If you have not attended a Viper Days event, do so! Great instruction, a bunch of (safe) track time, and the social events are awesome ... Hope to see you great folks there ... Jon
