So if you live in the Sahara, tough break. But if you live somewhere up in Montana or Idaho...
With a given that most turbo cars nowadays automatically compensate for altitude with more boost, so power doesn't fall off up to, say, 6000 feet or so.
Ah-h-h, a Montana blizzard. Time to play in your turbo car...
