Yeah well the temperature has dropped quite a bit, it is cold out now and the humidity dropped by quite a lot too...
I also did most of this testing late at night so there weren't many cars on the road at all

That is it, most summer tires preform much worse when it is cold out. With my eagle F1's if it is below 65*f I can spin them in first just by flooring it, but once it heats up they just grip and it takes a good clutch dump to spin them.

Alright cool so I guess everything is normal....
It was so cool, I was driving around in this university village area and there was this SL55 and he floored it and then when the next red light turned green I just floored it really hard and it spin pretty crazily...
We both laughed and I was just thinking that his car could probably whoop my *** but oh well let me give you a dose of some ford mustang lol
