My A/C is on almost 100% in the summer...unless I am racing.... (too much drag).

I see all of these people with fairly new looking cars sweating their balls/tits off when it is hot outside....

Are they trying to save gas by not running the A/C??? I would rather get 17mpg and be cool than 18mpg and have to shower every 20 minutes.

 

But you got humidity.

California weather baby.

Although the weather kinda sucks right now.

 

In Cali, we don;t pay for our air conditioning my miles per gallon. We call it "rent" and the natural AC is just part of the deal.

 

personally it has to be REALLY hot for me to go for AC. As long as the air is moving I can live. Stop being such a girl and take it like a man.

 

just take your shirt off and get a tan

 

condenser shuts off a full throttle. often at the track i forget to turn mine off after leaving the pits...no difference in laptimes.

well i'm flaming. you're a ing moron for doubting me.

but really, have you ever done two back to back runs, one w/ AC and one without? if the answer is no, then your feelings are meaningless. In any case, so many other variables affect what you feel in the car...there's a reason real dynos are used to measure power and not just the seat of your pants.

 

I like rolling my windows down more than A/C in the summer, but not on highways (too much wind noise/pressure)... Some cars take a while for the A/C to get going, so maybe that's the problem I dunno..

 

i dont like running the a/c b/c of the added stress on the motor, i dont care about wasting gas. gas isn't that expensive around here anyways.

but yeah, if the weather is hotter than 90 degrees, the a/c will be on. otherwise, the top is up and the windows are down.
