Monster in the cold

Man the car was a monster this morning. oil temp at mid 70s is about perfect. I couldn't believe the difference. Too bad the traffic stopped me about 20 miles into my drive.

I am sure you were doing the speed limit I feel the same power increase when I leave work around 9pm. These cars sure do love the cold.

Exactly...........

My car LOVES the cold. I swear I feel like it just got an ECU tune when it is cold outside. Everything is faster, acceleration, shifting, handling............... I love it

My 3.9 second 0-60 run was at 50 F outside temperature

I'm telling you guys, anything from 30 to 60 F, our cars just become alive

Dude I went riding with a friend who turned out to be a psycho when you put him on his gixxer. Damned near killed me in the canyons. I gotta buy myself an R and then maybe I can keep up in those turns.
