Your Viper looks very unhappy 
Probably because it was hibernating and doesn't want to get its tires cold

It seems like Vipers in the snow sort of do a 180. They then become a little more controllable. Although, you are going backwards at that point.

Beautiful Viper...now why do I think that?~~!! Partial maybe? LOL....yeah, not happy in the snow....on our driveway, our vert would slide all the way down into the ditch with e-brake on~~! LOL....why are you just an enthusiast? Are you not a Viper Owner? Then on to VCA Member? I KNOW you have people in your area that are VCA members! ~juli

You need to shoot off a PM to Y2K5srt, Lee00blacksilver, KCObean or citysnake...they can help you with that vin#/Viper Owner status!! Wowww....that sounds like an AWESOME build for your Viper....HREcomp21 (not size 21...that's the name of the tire)...900-1KRWhp? Striping what color? And, tint on headlamps and taillights you mean, or windows? Can't wait to see THIS car when it's finished, as we are VERY partial to BLACK Vipers...yessssss!

Probably cus it's the end of the year and a great bargain to join now? Back to the matter at hand...the GREAT pics of the BLACK Viper in the snow...yes, I also love them! It's difficult at best to GET our Vipers ON and IN the snow...much less MOVING THRU the snow~~lol....juli

Guess it's a good time of year to join up, as the rates go up after Jan. 1st...and love to support this site, it's the only car forum I belong to...very informative, fun and GREAT people, Austin included here.Back to the topic: LOVE the BLACK Viper in the snow...not much fun driving it in the snow...so it's fun to see that! ~juli

Ok, just to make something clear... I was in NO WAY trying to stir the ***. It was just a simple non-harmful question. Every time I see someone post about the membership lately it makes me think about the Alley and how they would have a "SH*T LIST" of people who didnt want to donate to the site. They would try and run those people off. It kind of gives the wrong impression. Nothing against anyone.
Back on topic. Again, nice pics!

NO problem, Austin~~I hear ya on the 'Alley', my LEAST favorite place in the world, if I never HEAR about that place again, I'd die happy!!! That is just wrong, and why that forum is not a fave among alot of us. I hear ya!!! ~julitinting the head/tail lights and windows as well
If I stripe it I am going away from the normal lines. I wish I was better at photoshop then I could post my idea. I want dark or silver grey running from the cowl covering the entire raised part of the hood and carried back to the deck lid. I'm going to work on the photoshop thing and see what I can come up with.

Heyyyy, I see you are "Viper Owner" now, yessss!!!! Someone caught that one~~!
Wowww...tint everything, that'll look BADASP...and yes, I think I can picture what you mean about the striping...dark(like charcoal?)/silver/grey would look great...hope you can come up with a pic so we can kinda see where you're going there!! GREAT ideas! ~juli
(BTW: How DID you get your Viper OUT of the snow?)

I've had my Viper in the snow once. It did OK with very gentle throttle inputs. However I won't subject it to salted roads. The underside is too gorgeous to subject it to accelerated corrosion!
I needed traction but I couldn't find a set of tire chains that would fit Only had to take her a few miles on major roads but it was very slow. She's now tucked into a heated garage preparing for disassembley
I think the stripes will be similar to the comp coup
Finally a Viper Owner!!

If a red Viper in the snow looks like bleeding snow, what's a yellow one gonna look like?

That's a little scary! I don't even like driving mine in the rain (I've done it many times though.) God bless the guys with more b...s than brains!!! And I mean that in the NICEST of ways (not as an insult)!
