Default Year round outdoor running

I love living in Texas. We run nitro buggy year round outdoor. Last weekend club race this weekend fun practice time. It should be about 65 degrees.

I live in NC, I think its plenty warm to run outdoors all year for the most part.

I'm originally from NJ so I think 55* during the day is great, people that are from here think its too cold though.

And that is the reason why I don't live there anymore.

At our track in Scotland , we run all year round . Winter series is often under 0 degrees (Celsius ) (not sure what that would be in Fahrenheit ) .

Rains almost every race day in winter (and a a good few of the summer ones too lol )

Here in Arizona we have the best of both worlds. Our winter temps are 70-75 in the daytime and cost of living is cheap! The only thing we don't have is the Dallas Cowboys.... Many people consider that a good thing but I bleed silver and blue and I've been bleeding for a really looonnnnnngggggg time!

I live in Michigan, our outdoor season is 4-5 calender months long. But truthfully between the spring thunderstorms, mid summer 100+°f/80% humidity days, and 30°F with possible snow autumns we realistic have 2-3 months of outdoor racing. What I'm saying is don't live here if you want "good" outdoor racing year around.
