Anyone going to be attending the VSCDA Vintage Fall Festival at Road
America this coming weekend(24-26). If so stop by and say hi. I
will be racing(barring unforseen catastrophes) a red Mini #42. I
should be paddocked up on the tarmac under a blue canopy.
RE: the cooling problem, you do not want coolant to flow too fast or
the radiator(s) will not remove enough heat. That is why when we
remove our thermostats for racing, we install a blanking plate,
which slows down the coolant a little.

"It has been said that motor racing shares in common with sex the distinction
of being of the most popular, most maligned and least understood of human
activities.
