Cool dry weather and performance gains

Today in the Baltimore/DC region it's 70's with very low humidity- what a performance difference. My Civic was the same way. (I guess that's why I'm getting such bad gas mileage, I can't keep my foot off of the damn gas pedal!)

My car drives much better in dry cool-warm air. I feel like sometimes when the roads are wet, my vsa kicks on even though i dont see any lights. it's almost like the car tries to give power to certain wheels or help me to keep control with lack of acceleration, it's strange to describe.

I have been feeling my car a bit sluggish lately, maybe it is the weather. It's been heating up a lot in the past week or so down here; well more so than usual since it's typically hot down here. According to Yahoo it's 90° with 54% humidity in Miami today.

It's done nothing but thunderstorm in the south recently. I'm tired of that shit, I want some nice dry, cool Fall air.

It was in the 50s and 60s in the past several days. That was fun.

I love flooring the car and squawking the tires hard into second gear. Everyone looks over and drops their jaw.
