Best advice I've seen regarding this is head to the nearest Babies'R'Us and they'll let you try them in your car. Something is bound to fit.
if you scroll down the page a little you'll see they carry a Recarro child seat for front and rear seats

I wish I could go but I dont think I quite trust my ride yet. Im just bareley getting it completed from a
total disaster by May, I havent put many miles on it and everytime I turn around something breaks. Are there any Missouri guys/gals going? I would feel better if I had some fellow 928'ers and maybe some spare parts riding with me.

If they do, the guy who's going with me can check you in. (with non-alcoholic beer, of course )

No...graphic design/architecture is my game. Still, from a police perspective, a limiter would take all of the fun (and revenue) out of the game.

Unfortunately it looks as if we won't be heading up on Friday. I like the first night the best!!!!!! Oh well, at least we'll be coming up early Saturday morning, and meet everyone at the Best Western. Then we'll head from there up to Grandfather Mountain. Either way, at least I do get to go!!!!!!!!!!

Default Change your brake fluid!

Sounds like a great time shaping up! Hopefully we will be coming to this year, it's still a bit iffy though. We will know about a week out. Guess we will have to sleep in our car Friday and Saturday nights!

By the way, thinking of the leisurely ride we took from Grandfather Mountain to the restaurant, and any other time at least one other 928 was either in front or behind us going through the mountain passes, I would strongly recommend checking your brakes and changing your brake fluid before going to SITM. Checking your tires condition would be a good thing too! I remember a few tales of "...and then my brake pedal went to the floor!" which, although amusing afterwards, is no fun when it happens at speed. If your SO is with you, bodily injury will almost be assured even if you don't hit anything!

Cheers,
Constantine
P.S. If this has been covered already it's good to hear it again!
