Vapour Lock

[Duncan Grimmond]

    'MIn both of my specials I have found that the bulkhead takes only a few minutes to become warm and the holes around the pedals allow a surprising amount of heat to enter the foot well. After a half-hour drive the feet are toasty warm despite the open cockpit.
Getting the hot air out from under the bonnet is critical to avoid overheating in hot weather. I thought I'd allowed for this with the large meshed vent I have fitted in Mathildeux but I think I'm going to have to fit a four-blade fan to help.
