More clarification. ST RX8's (championship winning) with big rads and MS front ends maintain 210 deg. Stock will work just fine. Keep your body cool. See y'all soon.

LOL!!! Love it!
Good info Chas---and they are geared lower and have a higher red line
If Silver or I see any potential problems we will quickly pass it on--may be a good time to practice "save the car" lap, short shifting etc.
Now wouldnt you know that the brake rotor scews heads stripped!
Damn. I also learned that you dont have to use them anymore!!

Car is ready and on the trailer. Gonna change the tires when I get there.
You like the sunroof? I thought it was appropriate.
I can't wait! I'm so excited. My track list is made, I'm checking it twice. I'm not going to sleep at all this evening. I'm going to try to get there around 3pm tomorrow.

Haha, I like sun roof, nice touch!
OnRails, I think the TracMount rev3 will be ready for you to use. I'll use the old trailer hitch version. I know one thing, I'll never make my money back on this puppy as it is a bear to bend consistently.
Look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow.

Thanks for the loaner. I'll put it to good use.Lego - The car looks great. I'll bet its exciting to get out there with it after all of the work you've put into it. LMAO at the sunroof.

w00t - can't sleep
L8, OnRails - I was at GTE today and the other guy in the waiting room was a shaggy, blond dude named Matt who drives a blue WRX. He was at CMP in DE2 and remembers you guys playing lead-follow.
I went out to watch you guys that session, and met some WRX guys that were timing him.
Small world, he said you guys were really fun to watch. Twin cars chasing each other.

The Turkish Delight
I didn't sleep much last night. Kept waking up with and smiling about my upcoming day. It rained last night so the car is "washed" and the dust is off of it. I just have to load the boxes up and hit the road in a little bit.
See you guys soon! I'll have my laptop with me and if there is internet access at the hotel, I'll have routine updates nightly (well, at least Friday/Sat night).
Everyone have a safe drive to the track. See you all there.
