Bring your jackets and warm clothes...

66f daytime high / 38f Night time low

Valk - Not worried about the temps, but what do the local forecasts show for rain? Weather Channel predicts 40-50% chance of rain both Fri & Sat.

Looks like rain on Friday
Forecast for Saturday currently is light showers early morning (20% chance) and then clearing with dry weather and 60 degrees in the afternoon going down to a night time low of 45 degrees but no further rain forecasted for the remainder of the weekend

Doesn't sound too promising for my install...unless you have a big garage Gary. Sounds like a cold install as well.... Ole' Rudy may want to re-think this one. We shall see. I will call Rudy when I get home...to see what is up....later....

Plenty of bright light and room in my garage and it's also heated if we need to turn it on.
I've had it 70 degrees in there when it's 10 degrees outside
Don't throw in the towel now Doc....THIS CAN HAPPEN

Possible 23, if weather is good, another new guy from Portage, Ind area. I drove ours on a job, and it was funny, we were working right next to each other for about a week and didnt know. He's been to Bolingbrook before, but said doubtful, if weather is bad. Lucus (& wife) def. wants me to let him know about next GTG. I did steer him to the forum, even showed it to him. So we'll see. Maybe another new member soon.

Just want to thank those who came by my house tonight for pizza and beer etc.
Rudy did the paddle shift kit install on Oledoc2u SRT6 Roadster as well.
Looking forward to seeing all of you again tomorrow for our Lakefront Cruise.
For everyone who posted that they will be coming I still hope to see all of you regardless of the weather.
The cruise will still leave from Cheddar's around 12:15 and proceed downtown for the Lake Shore Drive Cruise and lunch at Manny's Deli.

As for the Demolition night we will discuss that over lunch in the afternoon and determine the weather and then decide
An alternative plan may be going to a sports bar in Bolingbrook not to far from our starting point if the weather is not cooperating.
So come on out and join us anyway.
We will make the day fun regardless of the weather.

See ya in the morning

Gary
