Prior to that, Matt was an independent financial statement auditor with a main focus in the Not-for-Profit Audit division.

There are also a number of significant national responsibilities appointed within the national club. Our directors are:
Tech Team Director – Chuck Tator
Chuck Tator lives in South Salem, NY and has been a member of the Viper Club for nearly 20 years. He’s served as Technical Director for both the NY and NE Viper Clubs and is currently the Vice President of the NY/CT club. He is the third generation of Tator’s Garage, EST 1908. With a mechanical upbringing, a wrench in his hand is second nature to him. In a past life, he was also enlisted in the Air Force [SAC 1975] where he worked on KC-135’s & FB-111’s. When the first Viper hit the Auto Shows in 1989, that was all it took to spark his now Viper passion. In 1994 he purchased a new RT/10 and has had venom running in his veins ever since.
