A cool shirt will help. It's a T-Shirt with a maze of water tubes attached to it. The shirt has hoses which attach to a cooler and pump unit. Keep the cooler full of ice water and you have a nice, comfortable suit.
They use an almost identical system in the medical field for injuries. Rather than a cool shirt, the water is piped through a cuff that can be used in place of ice bags on knees, ankles, or other joints. The fittings are the same between the race and medical units.
All you have to do is throw your least favorite team member down a flight of stairs. The hospital will set him up with an ice system and his insurance will pay for it to boot! All you will need is the T-Shirts and you'll be good to go. Of course your buddy will likely be watching the action from the sidelines while in a cast, but at least you'll be comfy in the race car.
