Congrats! What do they give you in the bag? Extra wide roll of duct tape? 
fancy CART dress socks.
Service bulletin Mazda parts! glue in soft top inner fabric retention clips… now the inner fabric will stay in the channel
Ayla aced her license test last weekend, and after a week of waiting for the stupid RMV snail mail authentication code we got her paid up and licensed yesterday. added her to the gti today. made her drive me to walmart for some coffee creamer 
she will be commuting to school at end of september, so now we are on the lookout for a 7-10k beater with a manual. probably a jetta, accent, mirage, fit or sonic.

so since the gti got the camera recall update, it has worked worse. the system will freeze and reboot sometimes when the camera is activated, especially if it has just turned on. my wireless carplay dongle has not been working well either. i left it unplugged thinking it may be causing the camera trouble but it is not. there is a firmware update available for the dongle i may attempt... this weekend it did an OTA update for the gps (for calling home to vw, and reporting in the myvw app).
also just short of 30k now...

another great AX weekend with 70 drivers . the stock 380 finished 13th overall in a field of heavily modified cars, with 5 open wheel cars and karts taking the first few slots. ayla finished 67th 
i have some drone footage i may upload.

We have procured Ayla a vehicle. It’s a 14 Jetta S manual with 82k miles. We were looking at 08-09 Fits and this was just a few hundred bucks more. Personally i feel it’s a better vehicle, and ultimately she wanted a Jetta.
