New England VCA Tator Tech Session... Saturday , September 9th

[Jeff Torrey]

Your New England Viper Club Technical Director; Chuck Tator... will be offering a Tech Session on Saturday September 9th.

This years topic will be maintaining the coolant in your Viper. Dodge has made it a bit tricky to flush, fill or even check the coolant in you car. The goal of this tech session is to take some of the Mystery out of this important and necessary task. Chuck will also be swapping out the thermostat in a 97 GTS.

This is a perfect opportunity to ask the Viper Wizard any question you have about your car. Anyone with the least bit interest or curiosity about how these cars run, should definitely check out this tech session.

We will be meeting at Jerry Colpitts house at 10am

Jerry Colpitts
20 Ballard Street
Tewksbury, MA

We will break for lunch around noon Pizza and Soft Drinks, after which Chuck will complete the service. If we are lucky Chuck will bring his magic programming tool and perform some free OBD 1 and 2 scans on attending Vipers.

Please contact Jerry Colpitts [email protected] to reserve your spot in his driveway, and obtain directions to his house.

I want to Thank Chuck Tator for the two Beautiful Racing stripes he left on my street today. But most of all i want to Thank Chuck and Rob for coming all the way to the New England Region for a Tech session, not only did our members get to hang with the Viper Wizard but they got a lesson on how to install a low temp thermostat and drain and refill your coolant system properly. Chuck You Rock!!!!!!!!! Thank You

Jerry I was re-sealing your road, your Town missed a few spots?
Can't wait for Nick's pictures!!

Thank You for hosting this event at your home! As always "Purple" rocks!
I think the NE Members had a good time too?

 

[Jeff Torrey]

Hey Chuck and Rob thanks a Million! Great day, great tech session.

 

[Viperguynick]

First and foremost I would like to send out a big THANK YOU! to Chuck and Rob. It is always great getting the Wizard and his partner in crime up here to sling around some technical jargon! I would have to say that this tech session was a complete success, with all in attendance gathering some important information on servicing their cooling system. It certainly was interesting watching you guys display your mastery in removal of that $17k hunk of SMC off of Dave's car! Thank again guys! On with the pics.

Thanks Nick, great pictures!

Dave said his Viper is still running! I guess that's a good sign?

Bill-

I guess this is my fault. This is why I post all the activities here a week ahead of time, I know you check the forum on a regular basis. The event has been posted on www.neviperclub.org for 4 months.

The current e-mail account I have for you is bouncing. I told you earlier in the year and you said you had been having computer problems. You sent me a new active e-mail address and it worked for about two weeks, then it bounced again every time. So I thought you were having more computer issues.

It may look like I am not doing my job, but I don't have time to chase people if their e-mail account is bouncing. If you stop getting annoucements please be pro-active and drop me a note. I will do what I can...

Thanks

Not a problem Jeff, you are definately doing your job and I did know there was a tech session but did not know the date and I thought it might of been next week, but I use to get e-mails and didn't get one this time, its definately not you and I hope you don't think I am blameing anyone, its my computer most likely with the e-mail changes and provider changes, I will definately get it straight and thanks for the heads up on the e-mail bounce.
I also been going to alot of pop warner practices and games for my younger son and don't check as often as I should, no biggy I will get there next time.
thanks
