    It looks like VIR's nights are going down to about 28 to 31 degrees. What the chances of the rad or block freezing???? Should I put in some glycanol overnight?? Any idea's?

    Hey Darrin, you still have some room available in your shop???

    Draining it is easier than flushing anti-freeze out of it the next day.

    or just buy a cargo van like I did.

    Although it's not exactly a chic magnet.

    Take a extra water pump or drain it.

    it shouldnt freeze enough in the short amount of time it will (hopefully) be below freezing to crack anything. If it is in an enclosed trailer, you will be fine. We were there in 03 for a full course day and at night it was around 25 for the low. Bikes were outside and were fine. The work light is a good idea if you feel uncomfortable though.
