Moving to Cleveland

[1 Bad Snake]

How active is the Viper community in the Cleveland area?

 

[VIPR GTS]

The Cleveland and northern Ohio area is home to alot of Vipers. The Ohio VCA puts on some pretty good events. There are alot of performance minded owners in the area and
V10MOJO and others can fill you in. Downside, it is winter in Ohio.

Condolences.

Well, there IS Mid-Ohio so that's not bad.

 

[Simms]

They have a terrible football team...sorry, I had to throw that in there.

 

[Newport Viper]

I grew up there. So I hope you are getting some mad loot $$$$$ to do that!

even worse basketball team!

 

[95Viper]

Do you know where you will be living?

 

[Rich Wesorick]

If you're a track rat, it's not a bad place to be. Nelson Ledges is less than a hour, BeaveRun and Mid-Ohio are under 2 hours, and Gingerman, Putnam Park, Watkins Glen are all under 6 hours.

I looks like I will initially be in Stronsville, then moving to either Medina or maybe chagrin falls area.

Well the weather will be a big change for a Dallas boy and not to the good I am afraid! Been raining here and shi*$y for two solid days. Can't do anything but play with your snake in the garage! Well, you know what I mean!

My condolences. The local sports teams ****! Buy a winter jacket!!!

There's a state called Ohio?

It's been a bad week in Ohio. Punks from MI won,( they need Ohio players to do that) Pittsburgh beat Browns, Cav's haven't won the last 30 road games! Northern Ohio builds character!!! Anyone can have a winning sports team or good weather. Actually, Cleveland and NE Ohio are a pretty good location. Lots to do, anything to you need is within 50 miles. No traffic compared to other cities its size. PS> If you haven't decided on a home, stay west and south of the lake. It's a different climate 10 miles from the lake and to the west= far less snow and more sun.
Ohio VCA is active. We'll be planning our Holiday Party for Jan. Lots of racers in Ohio, Lots of competition events. We host the Viper Nationals. We do some cruises, car shows and go to the plant in March. send an e-mail to Sam Goldfarb, >guardian@qn.net< our secretary and get on the Ohio VCA newsletter. I'm in Akron, contact me if you need anything.

Oh yea, I forgot to mention the ridiculous state tax, city tax and township taxes!

Maybe I can help you out, email me the details.


1 Bad Snake:
One of the biggest assets that Ohio has is Lake Erie, if you enjoy water sports, fishing or pleasure boating you will like NE Ohio. If you fall in that category you may want to pick a location that has good lake access.

As far as auto sports, there are five dragstrips located within two hours and another three within three hours. Rich mentioned the track access, in addition, you can competitively autocross every week during the spring/summer/fall.

Hi 1 Bad Snake
Welcome to Ohio and the neighborhood.
I live in Hinckley which is next door to Strongsville (mallville) and Medina. The best thing about Ohio winter is you have plenty of time to prep the car for next year. Send me a note when you get to town and we'll roll out the welcome mat.

1BAD, Check out Medina, very nice place to live, great downtown with good food and drink, also, a couple of Vipers already there.
