It is a cold and soggy morning at Atlanta Motor Speedway, but the Air Titans are on the track and teams are preparing for 500 miles today for the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500. 

Like any race morning, the teams are hard at work -- despite the cold and wet conditions -- to get their cars ready for Sunday's race and through the NASCAR technical inspection line. 

Drivers are fulfilling their typical sponsor and hospitality obligations around the track and in the suites.

Meanwhile, driver AJ Allmendinger of the No. 47 JTG Daugherty Racing Chevrolet was trying to deal with the chilly weather by passing out hot bouillon. He even offered some to our own FOX Sports television analyst Michael Waltrip.

Allmendinger also welcomed his crew chief to Twitter and expressed optimism about the car he'll be driving once the race begins.

Eventually, the rain slowed, then stopped and after the track finally was dried, it was time to race.

Follow all the action live on the FOX Sports television broadcast and here on FOXSports.com with RaceTrax.
