    Car being stupid

    My car is so messed up sometimes, last night on my way home from work it was running awesome, I pulled out of a gas station with a full tank. I shifted to second and punched it and the tires broke loose. but today when i took it for a spin around the block it didnt seem to run as good. can the humidity, air temp. and other atmospheric conditions really have that much of an effect? because my one friend with 02 GT, his car acts the same. Seems like always at night time it runs a little better.

    The weather definitely makes a difference. The colder it is and less humidty will make more HP. Humidty, Temp, barometer, and dew point all affect the DA (density altitude). The lower the DA the better the car will run.
