Default How cold is to cold?

What is the cut off point for you taking your Cobra out? personally day 50-60 and sunny is about it, unless it's a good cause (ie toy drive) night would have to be somewhere around 70 or high 60's.

You know it maybe too cold... when you start wearing your leather jacket, heavy gloves and wooly cap with the side flaps tied down over your ears.
But you actually know it is too cold when your eyes water while driving, the engine won't warm up and nobody wants to ride with you.
Oh Well..too bad for them, Billl

There is no low temp limit on a Cobra ride without a top. As long as the streets are dry (no snow and not wet), the only limit is how long you go for a ride. My personal best is 28°F for a 2 hour ride (see pic below). I did try a ride when the temp was in the teens, but I lost 4 teeth due to shivering and only spent about 10 minutes b/4 I put it back in the garage.

Good pair of gloves, warm woolen hat pulled down over your ears, and the SPF heater set on max. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.



How about a 35°F Christmas Day drive a few years ago ...
