Drop in temps here in Orlando. WOW!!

So we finally got some cooler weather today in Orlando! This is the 1st time since buying my car in June it’s been 60 in the morning with low humidity (not 80, 95% humidity). High today is going to be about 82, right now it’s about 76, usually it’s about 90.

Anyway what a difference with the car, it feels so much more powerful and responsive! I do have a CAI, but man when the temps drop a bit, the car really opens up. I was happy with the power of the car before today, but today just made it that much better; really I am just smiling ear to ear right now. What’s going to suck is when the temps go back up!

The good news is fall is here and winter is right around the corner, so cooler days will become more the norm for the next few months.

Drop the temps and lower humidity and she comes alive again. I'm hoping for this sort of weather next weekend at Pony Wars.

Yes weather was nice and cool this morning. Didn't drive my car but, i can say during the winter / early spring the car has gobs more power off the line. Wait til you punch it in January. Word of warning though. When the temps hit below 45 in the morning. It will be one rough ride on the Pirellis until they heat up. They are bumpy as hell under 45 degrees and feel like driving on wheels filled with cement.

Only takes a mile or two to heat up.

Go to the regional forums and click on Florida. The first stickied thread should have all the information you need. Scroll through far enough and you'll see the link that somebody posted for the sig pics that they made. Hope this helps.

Even now between 12-1, it still feels great... this was much needed.

I will have to take her out for a spin with the windows down just for the heck of it.

I've been driving the hell out of my car this weekend. I'm loving the weather. Can't wait till it stays around these temps. I've took the long way home a few times just so I could put my foot to the floor a couple extra times.

Cool weather, windows down, radio blastin, foot to the floor... That's what this car was made for.
