Just been out using some free oxygen
9pm Sunday 11 Dec - East Midlands, cold dry and quiet salt free roads.
Went easy on the roundabouts and corners but still good to get out after the last few weeks of bad weather and salt on the roads.
SWMBO thought I was mad - told her I had to give the car a run every few weeks through the winter to stop it from seizing up (only half the reason
really!)

I managed to get out to do a few "development miles" yesterday myself. Dry cold roads with not much traffic. Big smiles all day. Only
thing that passed me all afternoon was a Audi A4.
Didn't mind too much though, badge on the back said RS4. Bugger.
Now where was the link to those superchargers and nos kits on ebay?

Don't these cars' engines work well in cold air!
I knew the theory, but in practice the extra power is noticeable...

Yup, definitely noticable, right about the slippery roads too.
