Before the lockdown, I occasionally went with a friend to the ¼ mile dirt track at Welland, ON to watch motorcycle racing.  It is a real old-school place which I enjoy.  The have a class for JAP Speedway racers that all run bean oil and blue smoke wafts across the stands during their race.  Some people breath deep – others turn green.

 

Cheers, Mirek

Speaking of good or bad aromas experienced while driving behind an old car..  There was a motor oil that a bunch of folks used in the 60's.  It had a very pungent aroma peculiar to that oil especially at the tailpipe. As is normal these days I have no memory of the name or ingredient that was in the oil that caused the exhaust to have the smell  It wasn't common but experienced many times.

Steven, 

I think in your case that was a pick-up line on her part, or perhaps the aroma of the cologne you were wearing..........

That's a matter of opinion! At a car show once, I met a lady with a small mouth TR3 and we decided to go get a drink. She said she would follow me and once we got to our destination and parked, she came up and said "this is going to sound odd, but I love the smell of driving behind old cars"! We've been friends ever since.

The problem with such "Road tubes" as they were called in my day is the smell. I'm old enough to remember what it was like to follow cars with them .... they stink!!

Listers 

I attempted to add a 7 second video of a demonstration of how a draft tube works but it was rejected on the list.  Probably file size.  Anyway wanted to show the effectiveness of a draft tube in operation. 

Had my shop fan blowing parallel with the floor (car in motion), a empty paper towel tube and a strip of Kleenex tissue.  Cut one end of the tube at an angle, about 30 degrees. Held the tissue paper over the upper square end of the tube and slowly lowered the angle cut end vertically  into the fan wash, Only had to lower the tube less that 2 inches  and the tissue was sucked down the tube.  The engineers way back when knew what they were doing with regard to ventilating the engine in a very simple but not very environmental way. 

As Mr Dylan once said. "Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now..."  :)
