Something very important to remember: No matter where you are, or what the difficulty might be, there is a huge family of enthusiasts here and I'm sure that any help, parts, or advice you might need on your trip is only a moment, phone call, or posting away!
Best of luck!

Thanks, I will definitely keep that in mind - the only 944/924 guys I personally know are either local or up the east coast! But would love to meet up with others along the way and maybe do a local cruise or have a beer. So far my two buddies that say they want to ride-along on different legs of the trip are major automotive MacGyvers - they are the type who can repair anything with whatever random stuff they have on-hand (one stage rallies a Merkur XR4Ti, and the other rallies a formerly volvo-turbo'd e30, if that tells you anything!). While I trust my automotive knowledge pretty well, these are guys who take "roadside fixes" to a whole new level
But of course with not a lot of these cars in certain places (I'm guessing Montana!) it's always good to have some 924/944-specific people on the contact list for parts and such.
I also hang out a lot on Grassroots Motorsports, which is a pretty huge community scattered across the country, full of people who know how to fix anything on any car haha. There's even a thread on the main page there called the "on the road assist requests" or something. Always thought that was a cool idea.
