I want to come out, but it's just too damn hot to be driving south right now. What kind of temps are you guys seeing at the track? I don't do well with heat... :P I'd rather stand in the pouring rain with NWRA, personally LOL

Right now the max temp is forecasted to be 96F, which probably won’t be reached until later in the afternoon. Honestly not too bad! We also have the main air conditioned building available to hang out in in-between sessions.
I’ve attended much hotter days personally so I think the temp will be fine
Thanks!

Other then track time itself, it's by far the best driver enhancement. I'm upgrading to a ChillOut if anyone's interested in my cool suit stuff.
1. Portable coolsuit bag, cig adapter, 2 white shirts
2. 12qt cooler system, 2 prong hard wired adapter, 1 black shirt with SFI disconnects.
Only thing you'll need is the 6foot hose as I'm keeping that.

Would also love to see your guys' mounting solutions for the coolsuit gear.

During my last track day, I left the A/C on in the pits, before staging. Between that and the shirt, I got cold. I had to turn off the A/C. After my session, my head wasn't even sweating in my helmet.

I riveted my mounting strap to the floor, behind my driver seet. For the heck of it, I use a really strong bungie cord as back up. I have no carpet/back seats, so the cord criss crosses the strap using one of the holes the rear seat cusion snaps into and goes forward from there. I can post a pic if you want. It's the easiest/most convenient place I could find to put it. I run power from the cigarette lighter harness (I think... would need to have to look to confirm) which goes under my center console (had to keep because cup holder LOL) and has a 6" pigtail that terminates into a 2-wire WhetherPak plug. The pump draws so little, I didn't even need to use a relay. It's a really, really sweet setup. I think I may have paid about $75 for the parts to build and another $110 for the shirt. Totally, absolutely, completely worth it.

Use the METAL hose ends (PLCD17006), not the plastic versions, as they reportedly work with all cool shirts. From what I've read the plastic ends are only compatible with one brand shirt, I don't remember which. I used an Ultra Chiller shirt for my setup. I can't confirm which other shirts work with the metal ends because the companies I contacted did NOT want to share information seeing how I wasn't buying their coolers.
Priming issues?

By the way, we’ve now got a FLASH30 code available for 30% off, so if anyone still wants to come, we still have some space!
Thanks!

Thanks kaj! By priming I meant the cavitation issue that is mentioned. When that happens the pump has issues priming and nothing flows. Looks like the thread recommended mounting horizontally to get around that issue.
