A little drive in a Viper SRT-10!!!

[duko]

Hey guys,

Last weekend I went to Knokke. When we came there, we saw a Dodge Viper SRT-10. It was parked so I crossed the street and made some pics.. After a couple seconds, the owner came to me and said: ''Do you want to take a seat?'' Me: ''Off course :D''.. The owner was very friendly and told me every thing about the car, it's the only one in Belgium 8).. The next day I went to Knokke again and again I saw the Viper.. It was driving in knokke.. After a while I said to my brother: ''I'm gonna ask him if I can make a ride in the Viper with him'' so I walked to the owner and asked it.. The guy said: ''Okay, I've got nothing to do so get in'' :D :D :D.. We drove about 5 minutes and it was STUNNING! The acceleration, the power, the noise.. Everything!
Here are the pics!:

P.s. Don't pay attention to the talking and it goes a lot faster than it seems ;)

thanks dude for the pics, video added to dl-queue.

Keep asking and report the experiencies :wink:

[Carrera_GTcrazy]

Awesome experiance!!! Very nice pictures!

[Wutputt]

Aren't those Belgian guys extremely friendly? :mrgreen:

Some very nice pics. I've to wait though for dl the vid (I've downloaded too much from rapidshare the last few minutes ;))

One remark though, I don't think it's the only one in my little country. I know another place where a Viper is sleeping.

[duko]

Oh.. I didn't know that, the owner said that this was the only one :P

[dingo]

Great news, and nice to see another friendly owner. :D

It won't be long and all JW members will have had a ride in some sort of exotic - well we can try anyway. :D

[TT]

Nice occasion you got :) we must always jump on them when they appear :)

You know, all it takes is a friendly owner and enough balls to go ask them ;)

I really love the look of the older model Viper, especially due to the LARGE engine cover/hood which tils up on stils when opened. Breathtaking.

what a nice guy. I asked a guy to get a ride in his Ferrari 550 last year...he was a total dick. I love the new Viper, all those cubes make for tons and tons of fun!!!

Yes, I have worked that out lately - and got a ride in a 328 GTS and Lotus Elise. :wink:

Then of course next week I have another 10 cars I can add to that list..... :P

I just think that such people are not really car lovers, but just buy a car for the status.. I hate those people..

lucky b*stard :D :D

Interesting - when the cars are over in the US, they are called unwieldy piles of crap... ;) But when y'all come across one in Europe it becomes an "exotic".. :P

Nice - we need more folks to experience pushrod V8's and V10's to spread the word about just how much damn fun they are :)

[sl55kleemann]

Nice sighting and ride!

I saw it on may in Knokke but it was raining :?

[BADMIHAI]

I am impressed by the pictures. What modifications did you make to them, or what filter did you use?

[sl55kleemann]

Me, I just auto level on photoshop, but this pics where taken with my old cam, now I have a 7.2m pixels and the pics are really fine!
