acceptable outside temperature

Post by top cat mike »

At what temperature would people consider optimum for running cars/trucks outdoors. I had one of my non-vintage trucks out today and took a fairly tame tumble cracking a bulkhead. It is lower 40's where I live and that is probably a bit to low to run anything without the plastic turning to brittle. I know the answer to the question is more opinion than fact based.

i had my gt out today, it was probably around 40 degrees out. only problem i had was that one of the screws holding my arms on came out. might have just been stripped from getting old, but i didnt have any other troubles. i beat it pretty hard, runnin full blast in a parkin lot jumpin it off big ol' snow drifts. it also has rpm arms front and rear, so stock plastic may have broken, but the rpm arms held up great...
