I guess I am a newb.. I drove my 172k mile 996 over 800 miles to the PCA Werks Reunion in FL just 2 weeks after buying it. Just me and my 10yr old son.. no issues whatsoever.

In April of this year I took the wife and son to Asheville, NC and the Biltmore in the 996..over 1000 miles round trip.. so take that "Rennlist (dammit)"

Hey man, could you post the link. I thought it was a joke too. I didn't see anything related on the main 996 page. Thanks!

What if I drive it to 999.99 miles? Am I good?

Actually, I was thinking about taking my car up to the mountains, but then I realized there would be a lot of uneven pavement and the forecast shows heavy rain. I wouldn't want to get water in my snorkel.

What? I thought the whole point of buying a 911 was to get your snorkel wet?
