A great idea - except for one thing - it doesn't work.
For those of you who DO want to know how hot dogs are made:
I drove around for a good while to make sure everything under the
hood (er, bonnet), was up to normal op temps.
Air temp 82F
Water temp 180F (you metric guys will have work out C, or K or
Under hood temp 130F whatever for yourselves)
Then made 8 runs, 2 East and 2 West with underhood air intake and
2 East and 2 West with wheel well air intake.
WOT @ 2000 rpm in 3rd gear, started stopwatch @ 2500 rpm and stopped
watch @ 4500 rpm.
All 8 runs were scattered in the range of 8.1 to 8.5 seconds.
Well, damn. Back to the drawing board.
