I have no way of measuring since I do not drive by gauges. I just wait long enough to feel comfortable that everything is up to temperature. This means that in cold weather I don't play on the ramp when I start my commute. Now, since if it is that cold out then even my snow tires are to firm for much fun anyway. I am never sure where all these people that start hooning right out of their driveway live and drive. If I start hitting red line anyplace within about 10 minutes of home or work I am going to either smash into the back of somebody stuck in traffic or have frequent conversations with the nice police officers.
