Guys! Just a little reminder for Daytona.
As you know the track is full with all kind of flying, standing, round and sharp motherf***ing stones.
All of them pointing to your RADIATORs. Want to punch a hole on them.
So before you go, spend some time and couple of bucks for protecting your radiators.
Even a regular window screen could work.
Good luck for everyone!

Apparently there's a bunch of potholes as well. Track coming right up from underneath the Nascar boys. race held up for hours. I'm sure there will be a repaving down there in the near future! Be safe all!

i don't think the track would be repaved.. it's part of the tradition, AND.. the track would be way to fast for even NASCAR if it were repaved from what i understand.
GOOD reminder for radiator protection though, don't need an expensive rad cover either. Just pick up a 5$ sheet of gutter cover screen. cut in half and safety wire in place through the fins.

Edit: i read somewhere that the track may be repaved in 2011??
