Resident Freelancer Todd Ridgeway got up close with a new kind of A/C system for your race car. It uses freon and would make a penguin jealous
Staying cool in the race car always has been, and always will be, a very big deal to any driver or race team in the business. The driver's core body temperature has a direct effect on his or her on-track production. That production comes in the form of race results along with a driver's decisions, good or bad. But it almost always hinges on the performance of the guy or gal behind the wheel and their comfort zone. More often than not, staying cool means staying mentally alert and in control ready for any situation. Even when the outside temperature is cool, it can still be a very hot seat in the race car. Drivers make split second decisions in the blink of an eye and any effort made to help make the right decision is an added plus for the race team.
