This is incorrect.

The tires are not to be used under 20. They are not recommended under 40, but if you know a thing or two about air temp vs. ground temp, radiation and heat, then you realize that there are a lot of situations where you can drive the car between 20 degrees and however hot you want to get. With raynauds, all of my cars have heated steering wheels and will for every new car I get. It doesn't have to be super-cold to super-chill my hands. Similar with heated seat, if you do outdoors stuff, you might be cold sometimes afterwards, but heated seat makes a huge difference. I find both of these heat up quite a bit faster than in other cars with the same feature. And then you can throw on some other tires.

One of our autoX it was something like 28 degrees at the start, I think that was either the last or the first one of the year. I remember we couldn't see because there was also fog. But luckily it warmed up with the sun out and the ground temp probably went to 60 then.

Anyways, the way I see it, the 2SS 1LE is like the ZL1, minus the supercharger. It's a great GT that can hang just fine at the track.
