Now imagine the same thing, but in November, with the heater on, not worrying about any water leaking from the car.

Which is better?

Plus, cooler air is better for the car. Why beat on the car in hot air?

i and im sure most n/a cars lose a couple tenths in the hotter weather. on spray i gotta watch the logs for kr. my car dead hooks in COLD *** weather, so why not take advantage of it? my trans cooler didn't even get that warm during hot laps.

i agree. i usually dont race during the summer. i only go a few times a season but right after winter when its still cool but not bitter cold and at the end when its starting to get cold but not freezing.
