Norcal Viper Club

Norcal Viper Club The NorCal Viper club is one of the most active and 3rd largest Viper Owners Association region with over 100 members. It’s like a big family.

The NorCal Viper club is one of the most active and largest Viper clubs, with over 150 members. In addition to bi-monthly meetings, we host a mix of club events, including social gatherings, tech sessions, track events, and weekend getaways. The Nor Cal Viper club held its first event in May 1994. The following year, our Founding President, Maurice Liang, established the national Viper Club of Ame

rica and became its first national president. Liang continues today, as president of the NorCal Viper club. Join the club, and learn more about your Viper, and share the camaraderie of fellow Viper owners. Just imagine how much fun it is to drive somewhere in a line of Vipers, and be able to talk Vipers with other Viperholics who are just as enthusiastic as you are! In addition, you get a subscription to our local magazine, Snake Eyes. You’ll also receive discounts on Viper merchandise, have access to local club events. The NorCal Viper club is no longer affiliated with the Viper Club of America. The club is a volunteer organization, and the people are down-to-earth and friendly. Spousal participation is encouraged. We have a saying in the club, “You go into it for the love of the cars, but you stay for the love of the people.”

Viper. It’s not just a car. It’s an experience!
