Another Viper Rendezvous is in the books! For those of us regulars (insane I can call myself that now), this event is like feel-good food you eat once a year at Thanksgiving: Familiar, delicious, and consistent. It's the yearly holiday retreat old sitcoms used to joke about. Except without the family drama, lol.

For newcomers, Viper Rendezvous holds a slightly different meaning: Exciting, wondrous, a new frontier, and amazement at so many Vipers in one place!

This is a staple event in the Viper community and if you haven't attended yet then you are truly missing out! Especially if you're a bit of a track rat, you'll be hard pressed to find any other event that'll provide you as much seat time as this one. Three days of tracking with multiple sessions per day!? You owe it to yourself to attend if you want to see what a Viper can really do.

And here's the best part: You can start planning your trip for next year already! Dates for the '27 running of Rendezvous are June 10th to the 12th, so get prepping and clearing schedules today!

(AutoWash Cars n Coffee, 2025): This particular IS makes me think it'll become the future Toyota Altezza given enough time. Super clean looking, RWD, decent engine (not too familiar with it), and depreciation should come for it given its luxury intentions. Just a shame it likely doesn't come with a manual variant (at least not with a potent engine), and most will say the real drawback is its lack of a 2JZ.

(Bandimere Speedway, 2024): While the sun sets on a fixture of Colorado motorsport, it's also rising on another somewhere in Hudson...

(Colorado Viper Club, Annual Meeting 2026): The carnivore came to eat...
This isn't car related, but speaking of beef, I had an amazing steak over Christmas last year y'all. No, not at Mickey's here (although I did have a very tasty steak here as well), but one I pan-seared myself! I'm not a cooking page so I'll keep things pretty brief: Amazingly rendered fat cap, decently seasoned (should've done more and will in the future), and surprisingly tender! I couldn't get that steak out of my head for 3 months guys. Seriously, every single day for three months I almost couldn't even get the smell out of my nose!
