Default Well, if you want to do it next wednesday or friday the conditions should be ok.
I'd love to come out and run with you guys, see what my lowly Stg2 can do against your stage 3. :-D

Ideal conditions is low humidity and in the 60s or 70s with a 90mph tail wind. :-D

Default ~263ēK, 0% Humidity, 250ēF track temp
At some point, you start getting significantly diminished returns from having cold air.

Default I saw his first post too, but even Mars isn't 0 K. Even intersteller space is an average of 3K
And it's 273, but oh well. I'm a dork, excuse me

Default No, I was shooting for below freezing
273ēK is becomes much less significant when there's no water to freeze.

My mistake, just assumed. The -10 C is pretty arbitrary though right?
