Being that I haven't updated this since July... Not much has changed.
Greases the u-joints, changed the spark plugs (today) and added a tablet mount. Also went exploring over New Year's Day when it was raining. I mapped out a few new trails to try, so hopefully I'll have some more pictures soon.

Any chance you have a link or brand/model to that USB adapter your using? I like the low profile of it

I used to race NASA and SCCA, but haven't in a couple years, since I sold my STi. I sure do miss it... Sadly, this is all I could find for NASA racing pictures at the moment.

Apparently I did a better job documenting my racing when I was running SCCA in my tC. Kinda fun to take a walk down memory lane...

My plugs looked similar when I changed them at about 108k miles. Even had the NGK, Denso split. I am guessing my weren't swapped out either.

Nice STi! I like those cars. NASA TX is pretty awesome, if you ever feel like getting back into it.

Family. That's what it's all about. Good to see a Dad getting the kids out of the house and into the world. Great write up.

Thanks. I took them to Guadalupe State Park, which is fairly close to our house. It was my kids' first camping trip, so we wanted to stay within an hour of home and have clean/useful bathrooms. The park was nice and I'd recommend it if your family isn't ready to really rough it. If you're on Facebook, I'd highly recommend the Texas Overland and the North American Soft Roaders groups. Both are very helpful and active in Texas. And reserve your camping spot early, if you use a state park. They fill up fast.
I got my airbag kit from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/LIFT-60809-Ser.../dp/B001CW6IBU
