    Default weather predictions

    There are now 295 cars registered for Daytona.
    83 in the I T group. 28 ITS, 25 ITA, 6 ITR

    Any predictions on the Daytona weather on race weekend?
    It's going to be hot. But will it rain?

    Every time I bring rain tires I don't use them. Let's see if the trick keeps working.

    Thanks to Jason, we finished up motor around 4:45am today. Added all fluids but need a new slave cylinder. Also, I didn't get a chance to fire it up today but will do tomorrow. Getting closer....

    It's alive! Still need drain the break in oil, replace stock oil filter and hook up the remote oil filter. Need to replace the thermostat (it didn't open). Brake lights are staying on because of the stupid plastic piece from the brake pedal broke off. Lastly, need a new idle air control valve because it surges at 1500 rpm and check engine light with code 14. Almost there!

    ...and again, props to Jason for getting me there!

    You left out the IT-7 cars. Group 5 has 85 or so pre-registered. And the afternoon rains can be wicked! Remember May 2007?
