Calling Chicago TT Owners!!

~I’m 2 months new to the Porsche TT world – 02 Black TT with 67k and need all the feedback I can get!!~
Questions:
Any of you members live here?
What should I know about owning a TT in Chicago or in general?
Do you drive it year-round? (I plan on it)
What type of winter tires do you use?
Do you have a Midwest Navi Disc? Is it worth it to buy it? (car came from CA)? Can I duplicate the disc?
Where do you take the car for maintenance (good Indi)? (I plan on changing the oil and figuring out how to change the brakes/ brake fluid, easy maintenance)
Any clubs here in Chicago worth joining?
Thanks!
David

Congrats on the car.

I am in River Forest. I have 70k on my car
I drive all year round, but only on dedicated snow tires (Car is an absolute blast in the snow). Pic 1
I use Blizzak - get in touch with https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/member.php?u=2161 He will set you up
I think I have an image of Mid-West disk on our network that I can give you. Not worth buying one. I replaced my PCM with Pioneer and couldn't be happier. Pic 2
Depending on where you are, Midwest Eurosport http://midwesteurosport.com/, CPT http://www.gocpt.com/, and Bart at BTRacing btracingchicago@gmail.com Napleton Porsche if money is no object.
If you are interested in going to the track (pic 3) email me at frankdorn@gmail.com (you will never look at your car the same way)
