    Well we did not get an arena but they gave us a viper

    Brutal concourse with no room and only 16,800 seats. Very tight for the seat room as well. It's time for new building although no one wants to pay for it.

    Yes 2easy, and as a born and raised Edmontonian we really **** this past few years. As a long time season ticket holder I guess I have the privilage of financing the "re-building" stage of this team. Hope the flames make it out of the first round this year........

    This was an article yesterday in one of our daily newspapers in Edmonton Canada. The artist must have a viper as it is so different from the other cars he posted and or he knew what would attract attention. Rob

    Canada $ Strong, Eh?

    I for one Jon will be calling you up when I pick up the beast next week. It would probably be a suprise to a few that Canada purchases more goods from the USA than any other country including the EU, China or Japan. In the spirt of that and decent dollar I will as you say "shop till you drop"

    666 = Bad News

    anything with 666 makes me a bit uncomfortable even though I'm not superstitious. I met my wife on Friday the 13, we move to condo unit - suite 13, then I started 25 years ago with the company that I am still with and on the first day they advised me I would be handling region 13. Helped me...

    back thing with the fins

    Curious as to why the bottom (facia?) on 08 coupes are either painted to match the car or a flat black? Don't know what it's actually called but the thing with the fins. Was there an option or was it a production change? Thanks Rob

    2 Dead in Viper Crash: :(

    PittsS2B - You really don't have an idea as to what happened or what went wrong (maybe mechanical or tire blow out...)so your statement about the fellow is way to harsh. Not rationalizing speeding on the street but who knows exactly what happened. If anyone hit a tree that size at even 40 miles...

    Transportation Company and Local Inspection

    Although I was fixed on a new 08 Coupe (Venom Red) on the Westcoast of Canada, I did find another exact same 08 with about 3000 miles, stripes, for about $10K less.

    Awesome MotorTrend Classic Viper Article

    Saw and bought the magazine this weekend at a drug store of all places. Motor Trend did a great job. The Shelby Cobra article was cool and they did the Vipers justice.

    Venomiss, as much as I would like to take the icefields parkway don't think I have a chance until another few months. HSSSSSS, about that yellow, I will make sure that I have a pair of sunglass's handy when I am blinded by the sun like light reflection. I am sure that's what slows down the...

    Breaking in a Gen IV

    Great advice everybody and Much appreciated. Looks like I will have to take out the 993 in my VCA name (911 reference to the last air cooled cars) and make it relevant when I become a full member. Have not been this excited in a long time. Have printed out Venomiss and Steve-Indy's notes and...
