Default are 50's good for the track?

I know the cooler weather is better but will mid fifties be good for running or is that too cold for traction? I don't want to spend 35 bucks to run tonight if I'm just gonna be pulling 2.2 and higher 60' times. It'll probably be between 50 to 55 degrees when I would be running.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

50's(temps) are good for me to run in.

Good luck.

I'd say it was a good idea. I had a great time last night guys. My previous best was 13.5 @ 103 and that was in 85-90 degree weather on a 2.1 60' and you can see the improvement made by cold air and .1 reduction in my short time.

Thanks for the great advice. I'm much happier with my new sig
