Enter the "pandemic". Politics and opinions aside, it has put quite the damper on my plans. From a financial standpoint of being able to afford taking care of my son, racecar parts take a back seat. And with most of the racing I was planning on doing for Rallycross, Autocross, Track, and Stage Rally, those goals are out, too. Even with racing starting to resume, it's hard to take time off work when I need to rebuild finances and emergency funds that were used when things were closed.
Still, I can't complain too much. Nebraska hasn't been hit nearly as hard as other areas of the country. My family members and I are healthy, we still have jobs, and with nearly everyone I know driving these Subarus that I've recommended over the years, nobody has had any surprise repair bills or costly maintenance issues which has helped. We've even managed to enjoy our Subarus on small trips around the area together.
My WRX STI and my Baja Turbo have been great and plans are starting to come together for both of them. I even managed to have a little fun with my wife's Forester XT and some stock STI exhaust that was taking up room in the shed. So as my Subaru life starts to resume, so does my writing on this blog again. I've admittedly missed the fun of documenting my exploits in the Subaru world and I hope if you've been enjoying reading this blog that you'll get something fun out of it, too.
Before long, I'll have a quick write-up on the Forester XT modifications, MtnRoo plans with the Baja, and some fun power mods coming to the STI. Stay safe and we'll see ya next time!
