Where/ when is 944fest? My car's down right now, and even when it's back up I won't trust it to go too far for now. Maybe we could have a Chicago gathering sometime this spring?

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.

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.
