I need not weigh much, and could have a concertina bit at the upper end for a good seal. That way any air rammed in during racing would have to go through your usual system of cabin ducts etc and you could divert it to the windscreen with the lever - or the face vents. Would,t do much when you are still though.
yes I have thought about somehow routing a tube/hose through the blanking plate, but how would you attach it to the blankingplace to ensure an air-tight fit? the other end I would either route out above the headlamp or to a bonnet vent as you say. by the way, there is not heater inside the car either.
