Good input guys, thanks. Dialing tire pressures was something I totally neglected this trip. I'm definitely used to running them much lower in all of my previous tracked cars. I've wasted so much money on cars, parts, etc that I felt obligated to use up the PS4S tires on these wheels before...

The oil debate rages on for sure… I haven’t seen anything conclusive enough to make me switch … open to options though. RT660 was miles better than the PS4S .. I was probably under pressured but I was afraid of them overheating and chunking apart in the heat (which didn’t happen). I have wear...

Had a great time at Watkins Glen. First track day with the ITS. Used Pilot Sport 4S and Carbotech XP10/XP8 on front/rear and castrol SRF. Take homes: - I use about 3 gallons of gas per 10 minutes; so need to top off after every 20 minute session (I did get the fuel cut limp mode and lost rev...

which DBA rotors did you go with? i was looking at doing Girodisc and i do see there are quite a few DBA options. i'm getting horrible brake judder and i'll probably throw some new pads/rotors on and see if i can get my current "juddery" rotors turned or at least sand 'em to see if that helps...

the gauge was wildly inaccurate but now i know.... took about 6 gallons for 20min session. will definitely be a challenge going out with Chin for the 40-60 minute sessions lol. got the rev-match malfunction as well but a battery disconnect/reconnect did the trick. as others have noted, I've...

Sounds painful.. I also struggled with the oil filter so frustrating pre-track prep lol. Then I came or Watkins Glen and went into limp mode second session bc fuel tank was empty but showing 1/2 tank… took 11+ gallons when I went to fill up . ? guess I’ll join the “refuel every session team.”.

ended up just removing the housing and winding back using the internal part. hardest part is that stupid 7mm hex bolt against the brake line. the engineers definitely did not show us love with this setup lol... could be worse i suppose but wish the setup was more similar to the front of the car.

i thougth my GT4 was annoying to change pads on because caliper bolts needed to be removed. this takes the cake ... ugh. whyyyyyy. good info though and at least there are a few options.

Nice.! what pads were you on? I’m going to Watkins Glen in July and Summit in August… need to get pads and considering upgrading the pilot sport 4S but may just obliterate them and then change to “prevent waste”…

Corkscrew is like driving off a building … I definitely blew it a time or two by not getting set up properly … I also was watching for the sidelines when a caged Mustang blew the braking zone coming into the corkscrew and went straight off .. lots of tires there but destroyed his car. Yikes...

“imagine getting burned by a dad!” - my kids Seriously tho, OP. It seems like you’re projecting your “incel” struggles lol. I had to look it up and see it’s short for “involuntarily celibate.” I don’t think anyone here is blaming you, society, or women for our lack of action as the term...

Some folks don’t like hearing that.. the dude got a “kill” on the open road. let him bask in his victory ? but yeah … ITS is cool… “M light” cars with tunes and bolt ons are (and always have been) great power/speed cars. Had a basic Dinan tune on an 09 335i back in the day and it was really...

I like that the wheels have TPMS (I tried the base FL5 previously which look good but no TPMS and low key drove me nuts). so far so good! thoughts?

you'll miss the V8 and RWD. i do all the time (Camaro SS1LE and C8 Z06). i've never driven the Scat pack but have wanted one from time to time. Seems like a great car. the noise and tail-happy playfulness is something the ITS doesn't provide. However, it is very lightweight and turns in...

i have a lot of 55mph-70mph highway commuting. perfect prius territory. ITS is just too much fun for the small part of my commute that is fun. may just get another ITS ... hmmmm just like people with bourbon, wine, etc ... a bottle to drink and a bottle to save for when you can't get it...

relatively similar for me .. on the highway i notice economy drop off as I move through the high 60mphs and into the 70s and def by the time i get into the 80s... i have been driving a lot more lately (~50-60mi/day 5 days/week) and have contemplated getting a Prius or at least an Si which is...

yeah - it's such a small tank.. granted a longer tank just takes longer and stopping at a pump is still a nuisance. i had a Passat TDI that got like 750mi/tank and i remember still running that baby down pretty far. glad to know i'm not the only irresponsible(ish) one out there. also good to...

even just daily driving I feel like i live at the pump. Average about 27mpg. Can hypermile and get around 33mpg on the highway but that’s no fun.
