With the windows down and merely a shirt and pants (and helmet) on, I don't see what the problem is without A/C. Just turn the fan (no A/C) on to get the air circulating. Best thing to do, is (A) get in shape (exercise, running, etc), (B) drink a lot of water/gatorade, (C) sweat it out. If you want hot, try getting on a race track in August with the temps around 100 degrees and humidity around 89%. Put on your helmet, hans, race suit, gloves, boots, nomax. Go out and drive on the 145 degrees black asphalt wide open for 45minutes with the exhaust running about 1" from your foot (under your car). Floor board temperature is 160+ degrees...hot enough your heels start to burn. Versus going in your dark color 335 for a track day in a long sleeve shirt and pants...this is a walk in the park.
