Most of the time the heat doesn't bother me. I can remember running LRP a few years back when temps were in triple digits. That bowl gets HOT when the air isn't moving. When you notice sweat tracking across your ribcage and into your eyes when you're going through Big Bend, you know it's hot.
We ran a helmet blower for a few years. It helped, although not as much as a cool suit would. I think now it would be more a matter of picking my spots rather than investing that much in a cool suit, especially since we both have to buy HANS's this winter. Heat like we just had, I would probably just sit it out. We saw 101 here last Friday, on an open, usually cool area. I can only imagine what LRP would have been like!
