Now that is something I would pay money..LOL! Great idea Chuck!!
As far as coming to this site to promote the damaging of a Viper...wasn't a good idea...now you get a bit upset because people don't see your views...
It would be like asking for money to watch you torture an animal and going to the Peta site and promoting it. I don't think you would be too popular.
Oh, by the way....the Viper is NOT just another car or just a car. In here it represents the way we feel, our personality or with some "personalites"...but also a brothership. The Viper Club is if not the most closely knit car club around.

I'm only 23.. let a guy be creative!. I'm glad i went through with it obvoiusly, I made enough money to pay off my truck and made a few friends in the process. I also learned a lot and had a great time.
I apologize sincerly if it offended any of you, that was NOT my intentions, I figured most of you would think it was a silly idea and have a good time with it, I was wrong... but like i said... i made money.. you can harsh talk my business skills, but in the end, im going to win that battlelighten up! its just a car! a hell of a car, but just a car...
Dude, ever think of the consequences ahead of time? I see you were trying to make money, but you gave kids the idea that it was ok to bash Vipers. You had a little 9 year old keying the door in one clip! As if they need this encouragement. Lately almost every week I see a post of a Viper owner getting keyed or vandalized and some of it may have been fueled by your site.
You say it's just a car, no man, you missed the point, it's kids minds you're messing with whether they are 9 or 19, they follow examples of others. You made it look like vandalism is ok and fun, as if we need more of that in this world. My wife and I were shocked when we saw your site for the first time yesterday. Oh well, you'll look back in ten years and ask yourself "what was I thinking?" (On the flip side, I thought the peanut butter chicks thing was entertaining though my wife didn't care for it.)

you define the "narrow minded" i am speaking about.
1. hosting fees are next to nothing.
2. all time spent was having fun, not a second wasn't.
3. the girls were just friends of mine, free
4. car repair next to nothing. Friends.
I did this site, knowing i could not lose any money and only make money. which is what happened. Choose to not believe me if you'd like? but dont try and argue it, i made money bottom line, stop attempting to deny it because you don't like the site idea.

You are beating a dead bush here man.
when i look back in ten years, im going to say i [******] messed up a dodge viper! and made thousands of dollars! and had a great time doing it. There are no consequences here. Kids have and always will key cars. It will have nothing related to my site. You act like 23 million people watched those videos and now was to go key cars. Give me a break. Off cameras and even on cameras we instructed the kids that it really is not ok to key cars and they should never be doing this. But i tell you what, those kids are going to look back in 10 years and be like wow i remember keying that dodge viper int he parking lot 10 years ago! How many opportunities do you get that someone with a dodge viper WANTS you to key their car?
I can completely understand why viper owners upset, but you have to realize that other people think its great! i got 1000's of emails from people who loved the idea, 1000's........
im sorry but a few ********** dodge viper owners are not going to make me feel bad when i have the support of 1000's of other people for saying good try, it was worth a shot and entertaining. better luck in ur next adventure.
1) They do cost...something...though.
2) You got ass ***** on both Viper forums with rips about what a ***** you are. While trying to publicize the site, you made a complete fool out of yourself, and wasted hours typing crap up in your defense.
3) Well, at least you didn't pay them. I'd really think you were stupid then.
4) Car DEPRECIATION was a lot.

1. yes, but when not many people are going to the site it doesn't....
2. i made a thousands of dollars off of a crazy stupid idea, call me a fool all day long... I enjoy debating the site, its fun...
3. hey not every girl is a super model, be nice.
4. sold the car for more then i paid for it???? what??? is thats possible? yeah, i said open your mind didnt i?

I'll tell you the only thing i lost in this site.
that is a few fellow viper owners respect for damaging a viper on purpose. I will have to live with that.
But if some of you can't see the adventurous business side to it from a young guy just havin some fun... then it's probably not the type of person I would be looking for respect from.
Some people are creative, in CRAZY ways... As long as they are having fun, and not harming anyone.. you shouldn't judge them. I will always love my viper, no matter. Just tryin to get you guys to understand where i am coming from.

lol.. well then they would have bad parents. I explained to the parents what i was doing, and asked their permission if their kids would want to do it. They loved the idea and thought it was great. So blame the parents if you want, but they are the ones emailing me asking for dvd copies so they can send it to their families beacuse little billy's grandmother wants to see her grandson in his little spot to fame.
all the kids enjoyed it (obviously) and so did the parents.

You're a piece of work. To hear it from you you'd think you were a positive influence on society. Wrong. All you did was promote the idea of doing something stupid, irresponsible, and negative to try and make easy(lazy) money. That is not being an entrepreneur. Doing something stupid is not being creative...it's just being stupid.

When did i say i was a positive influence on society? stop putting words in my mouth to make your arguement better. Whats wrong with making easy money? and since when was making money ever easy?
being an entrepreneur is about starting your own business. SMV was a legit business. I learned how to open a business, have a business account, do the taxes from the money made, get investors, web design, hosting, etc. It was a hell of a learning experience for myself who just works a 9-5. Every step helps. To each his own.
Silly as it may be i learned alot I didn't know that will help me in the future, I also learned alot of stuff NOT to do. you live and learn. Don't knock me for trying.

I don't like the idea of destroying any thing. Unless, of course, it's my rear tires while I'm hammering down the road! 
Don't you see that you will never garner any sympathy, or any praise here on this forum. Go away. Stop trying to defend your ridiculous business venture here of all places. If you made any money at all from that joke of a business, it would be loose pocket change for 99% of the Viper owners here. No one respects you or what you tried to do. We don't care about your business future. You see entrepreneur, we see joke. Can you understand this, business major?

I asked a few of my narrow-minded friends what they thought of your business venture.

"It was an unbelievably stupid idea." - Donald Trump
"It was an unbelievably stupid idea." - Bill Gates
"What's that kid's number?" - Rick Wagoner

If you do not mind me asking, how did you end up making money? Did you sell the domain or idea? I was a bit fuzzy on that part because I only saw the $6000 generated. I am very interested to know.
