Maybe we could have a Chicago gathering sometime this spring?[/QB]</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">We should have a Rennlist track day at Gingerman Raceway in Southhaven MI. 2.5 hours max from Schaumburg. We could even go one afternoon during the week and run pretty inexpensively. I'm putting a list together for a track day, let me know if you're interested and I will keep you posted.
I'd go to 944fest, but imagine it's on a weekend and i have to work Saturday's.

Actually the speedometer is fast by a constant 5mph (not a straight percentage). However, the odometer is spot on.

However, the odometer would add over 1.5 miles for every mile marker we passed. The only think i can think of is that the odometer is reading in Kilometers. Is there a switch or something that changes the way the odometer reads? There has to be - there is no other explanation for it.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one losing her mind! Yes, I'm originally from FL. Moved this way about 3-4 years ago. I love it here and wouldn't go back to FL on a bet!
