is tomorrow when he drives to the docks, he decided in the end to take the winged S/C GTS with him to Fort Lauderdale after selling his Pontiac, Lincoln and vette. Doesn't seem right taking a viper back to the States !

He's leaving it on UK plates for a few months, I'm sure that will attract local police attention, espicially with no cats or mufflers

Its ashame for me he's moving, as he used to live 30 seconds from my house which is a very rare thing, 2 vipers in such a tiny village.

On a better note, yesterday he's offered me some time at the new pad then a passenger seat to VOI a 1200 mile cruise each way, if his Mrs doesn't fancy it, hooking up with the Florida convoy

heard from his missus, Phil has his eye on a fully restored 65 chevvy impala with flames, didnt take him long to get the collection going again. Not sure if the viper has cleared yet

a guy who is known by a handful of the viper owners, who doesnt bother with computers and was mostly working around the UK meets so he didnt go to many.

You'll probably know his car though, its the caravan tow record holder, and I think still the fastest blind driver, when it was Chryslers

And killer of most bikes in a head to head, he could drive that boy!!!!!

Possibly responsible for the new Triumph 2.2 litre as he once blew off a Triumph engineer (the new bike has the same displacement as a Viper).......wonder where he got his ideas?????

I thought the Reyland Escort, the one which got written off at Gumball, was the world record caraven tower holder? Or maybe the Norris Designs Evo 7 - well I know that car challenged but I don't know if it got the title.
