Glassman... my buddy with a Yates headed 408 stack injected
Cleveland in his Pantera says Ac is for Babies... he said he
and the wife just spray each other with water bottles going
100mph plus on our way to the yearly Vegas Pantera get together
No AC in my cars..dead weight... just like the passenger

When I was at Fontana watching guys in the pits with their windows up and A/C on staged and waiting to on track I will admit that I was pretty jealous.

Sadly, I have A/C but hadn't gotten around to getting it recharge after the motor swap. So I'm paying the weight penalty and getting no benefit!

Chad I autocrossed many a day in 105 heat
changing tires on and off the car before and after
I used to run against a Doctor who had AC in his turbo
car... I would go over and he would barely roll the window
down.. ac blasting... classical music going... I told him
that it was cheating.. he just laughed and rolled the window
back up.. had some fun times running against him

Now if it gets too damned hot I just roll into my f250
and crank up the AC for a few minutes

Bob, that is one good reason to use a tow vehicle instead of driving to all my events
