                I did 170km getting on the freeway the other day. I was stone cold sober though. I don't fuck around when it comes to driving.

                    11,542 feet @ Hoosier Pass several times when I lived in Breckenridge. The M20 was really struggling to make power. I never got around to driving Independence Pass...maybe some day.

                      Ha ha! Castle Rock is at 6,300, which is where I drive all the time. The highest is probably close to 9.5k.

                        What effect does this have on the car itself? What makes it cool?

                        I am basically at sea level..

                            The difference between 5000 feet above sea level and 500 feet above sea level is notable.

                            I once had a Toyota Rav4 4 cyl. and at 5000 feet I kept wondering why Toyota would ever put such an underpowered engine in that car.

                            at 500 feet above sea level it would actually pull a little bit and I understood that the engine Toyota equipped it with was just fine, so long as you weren't at a high elevation.

                              Your SCed car wouldn't notice it quite as much, but less dense air = less powars.

                              Edit: Realized after I posted--SCed car will notice it just the same. If it were turbo it would alleviate a lot of the loss though.
