You need colder air!

I just dug out an old timeslip from 3/19/00. 37 degrees out, rel. humidity 29%. Dense air supreme. Turned 13.846 @ 102.12MPH (vs an E55, of all things, that was not running correctly: 15.122 @98.01MPH). My later runs were a bit slower, I think 14.0ish, but still respectable.

I've never run under 14.0 since...but I've not ever been able to run in 37 degree weather!
