Drive smart, always wear a condom.. just incase you have a crash which results in your being propelled through the windscreen into a bus of nude female underwear models.
Edit: Just to reiterate.. I don't mean them "Big and beautiful" and, "You're fit.. no matter what people say", kinda models. I'm talking size 8-12 hotties with loads of cool body features and appendages.

is it possible the air could be almost too dense when its cold??
also does anyone know how petrol reacts in warmer/colder temperatures? e.g. does it combust better when warm?

Nah. That's where the choke plays a part.
The petrol is injected under pressure, obviously.. so warm or cold the particles are going to be roughly the same distance from eachother... UNLESS we're talking about a 40+ degrees hike, here.
Either way, cooler petrol would be slower moving on a molecular level and molecules would be closer together.. for the most part I think cooler fuel would provide a bigger bang per ignition. But as I said, I doub't temperatures are ever going to be extreme enough; one way or the other, for it to play a big part.
Edit: Logical thinking would imply that warmer fuel would react more erratically to sources of ignition.. but I'm just not sure that would be the case. Liquids of a certain density flow and change state easier/quicker when heated. Hmmm

so would it be reasonable to assume that its exploding easier at a warmer temp...and less spark is required?
