[quote=""Duck Vader""]Lift[/quote]

When lifter of things says lift, you lift.

Speaking of lifts. Wife saw a truck like mine with about a 3-4inch lift today. She liked the way it looked. Lol. Guess I know what I'll be saving for next.

That's right.

A transmission. :d err:

Lift is on the list of things to do. And I'm also thinking when I do it to go with some +15mm offset wheels instead.

Signed up for the Rally-X on the 21st of March

Woot!!! I really wanna try one.

Took a drive to Truckee and back today, needed a me mental health day. No real snow on the roads unfortunately, but was still beautiful!

Nice. I like that drive myself. Take it she performed well?

Yeah it was a nice "clear the head" day. I wish there was actually snow on the roads to actually test it out, but still was great. No actual hiccups for the Baja other than running out of wiper fluid. Got the nifty 0*F stuff since I stopped in Nyack for it lol.

Probably a $20 bottle then. Lol

Grab a burger and beer before returning home? There is a good restaurant just behind your Downtown picture.

Looks like fun. Hopefully you got your head clear.

Did a little shopping, there's a gourmet oil and balsamic place we like near there, got a new Truckee shirt and grabbed lunch at the Taco place in old Town Truckee.

I need one of those days.

Checked it over last weekend and discovered it had burned a qt of oil in about 900 miles

Time to trade it in.

My dad and I loaded it on the trailer friday afternoon and took it up to Thunderhill for a Rallycross event.

Took my parents RV and 'camped' which was awesome and saved a ton of money on lodging and food.

It was about 80% Subaru's only the FWD group didn't have any.

On the grid with a lifted SVX behind me. I purposely grided next to the other weird Subaru.

Nice, how did the race go?

Also your dad has a nice RV.

What did you ever do about the different sizes?

The event was somewhat poorly run, but still was a blast driving a Subaru in the dirt hard.

Yeah its a nice setup, but realistically only sleeps 4ish

Running one offset on one axle and the other on the other. If I keep it I'll make it right otherwise I'll put the stock wheels back on and sell it to my dad. He wants to use it as a TOAD behind the RV and has put some money into it getting it ready for that.

Passenger side rear bushing on the front control arm didn't enjoy Rally-X as much as I did...
