Hi all! I just got an its a couple weeks ago and replaced my VW GTi. The gti lasted in my driveway for almost 7 years and that's longer than any other previous car has. The its was the first car I've driven in the last few years that made me want to sell my vw, and that includes a massive laundry list of cars. I'm a NASA track instructor but also do some private instruction and occasional racing.
Right now, I'm waiting on some parts the dealer owes me (carbon mirrors, spoiler, Alcantara wheel, day 1 alignment) and polishing the car in prep for ppf and ceramic! This car won't hit the track until I have the ppf done, then it's game on for the days I'm just instructing and not racing! I'm also working with Chris at lathewerks on a custom knob that should hopefully be ready in a few weeks.
So far it's a wonderful car and a blast to drive! No it's not a German car when it comes to interior quality or general thoughtfulness in build, but it drives incredibly well. I'm looking forward to the coming years of driving with it and learning it through!
If anyone is in the Kansas city area and looking to get on track, please feel free to reach out! Ozark International is our newest track out here and it absolutely rocks! I've talked to the owner several times, my race mechanic is his race team's crew chief, and I know the folks that built the track. I highly recommend coming out and seeing it in person!! Here's a video of OIR when it was still pretty fresh, and with limited rubber on the surface grip still wasn't huge. It's even faster now!
