You get the regular summer gas, The cold air into the intake, and the tires are a little bit harder because we use summer tires!

I can now brake the back end loose going from 2nd to 3rd gear.

If the VDC is off you can just feel the back end giving out when you shift at red line!

God I love this car!

Yeah Tampa, it was 24 this AM when I got up! Colder weather makes for more HP & less sticky tires.

My dad lives in Ponte Verde, need to make road trip to see him.

Got a buddy that lives in Clearwater, he usually starts rubbin in this time of year about how warm it is there.

Tampa:

Yep! I have been breaking the rear of my car for the past two weeks. The G does that so well in the cold. And, she loves cold air when she is making some good power.

I have been wondering why we don't use some type of intercooler on NA cars to cool the air so much so that it helps build a lot more horsepower?

23 here this morning, same as yesterday morning. Went up to 31 late yesterday afternoon. At least there is no wind today.

Speaking of wind

Cold weather sucks. I was fighting black ice the other night. I don't really like these Kuhmo tires. They don't feel as safe. I think my Michelin tires were so much better.
