No, lowest it has been is about 5100 feet. At home we estimate that we lose about 30% of power at 8100 feet. not sure at I get to 11k on the passes but she still runs hard. I have almost always bought turbo's to off set. But now after the 3 I can not stand the turbo lag! Naturally aspirated is the only way to fly IMHO. Where in Co are you going? Lately here weather is still bad, it snowed today
btw, beautiful country out there- Have been to Denver, Boulder and a few of the ski areas over the years.
Climbed Longs Peak once in late spring, all the way to top via the "keyhole" route- Now that was a memory!! http://www.mtnds.com/hikes/mrh/mrh20.html

Thought about adding a SC?
Have you driven a gt3? no need it would detract from what the car was built for

Yes down town Denver is nice, considered more than once buying a loft down there.
Greenwood was once a area of nice open fields that I used to ride dirt bikes in as a kid!
I wont be in the city this weekend but big p car gathering on Rennlist if you are interested. I believe they are caravaning to vintage p car race in Pueblo.
