Default No AirCon cars - is it an issue?

Anybody got a car with no Air Con. Is it an issue on trackdays or travelling to trackdays?

NO

It would certainly be a nice luxury to have had, but it never bothered me in the slightest

And you only had the short drive to Oulton Park in your CSL...

Air con is the only option i deem as 'essential' to aid the enjoyment of the CSL - especially as i drive many miles to get to track and Ring trips during summer. Those journeys simply wouldn't be very nice without aircon...

All the other options are just 'nice to have'.

I done cadwell x 1, anglesey x2 as well

I agree if you use the car a great deal, I was a weekend blaster and trackday so no A/C didnt bother me, if it was main car I would prefer A/C.

Window down, fresh air and induction, life was shwweet

dmcCLS, ignore the squabbling. It is like being on PlayschoolRegister.com sometimes . Personally I think air conditioning is a luxury and definately not a necessity but people expect so much these days. As the CSL is a relatively raw machine (it still has electric windows/mirrors etc) it should perhaps not have been offered as an option. What did everyone used to do when hot - open a window.

I say this but did buy one with A/c but rarely use it. It grates with me that there is a loss of power if you use it . In short I bought one with A/c as it is 'expected' on resale.
