Finally............... Turbo weather

Well, the cool air is now starting to hit South Florida. Took my car out this evening and I thought I was going to rip the tires off my car, these cars run so much better with that awesome cool dense air!

The cool weather is also hitting So Cal -- we've seen some 50s this week -- gotta love it. My friends think Im crazy when I prey for colder weather. Unfortunately, it rained this evening. My MPSCs do not like the rain.

Cool air, condensed air....... more O2. We have it on tap all the time. It is sometimes refered to as nitrous. The question is how cold do you like it?

Colder air is better , but wind resistance increases significantly as air chills as does rolling resistance of tires and traction loss on cold roadway -so where is the happy medium for high speed acceleration ( 100 mph -170 mph ) in dry , non foggy conditions ? I heard it was 55-60 degrees F.
