Transporting PC Without... Uhh... Panels?

So I have been working on my 6.2L rig, going quite well, and I thought I'd be finished yesterday but I ran into some thermal problems caused by airflow restrictions from the exterior 'shell' that I have on the frame. So I removed that, and I decided I'll just take my PC like this:

...To my friend's house who's having a sort of LAN party and Papa John's Pizza Fest and what not today. I'll be driving there, but I was wondering whether or not I should put it in my backpack or something, maybe wrapped in a towel or maybe just sitting in the backseat. I'm just worried (a tiny bit) about humidity while it's outside and in the car for a bit, as I do live in Texas. That and it might rain, probably not but it is pretty cloudy today. I've done a lot worse than this to my PC, but I want to play it safe I guess.

 

Any ideas?

Hoooly hit that is tiny. Is it custom? Looks a bit like an ncase m1?

Awww, it's so cute! I wanna just pinch it's lil cheeks :3

 

Seriously what case is that? It's so small you can probably fit it in a plastic bag and just throw it in your backpack for easy carry.

 

I wish I had PC friends to have Papa John lan parties with :'(

Custom. It's much smaller than an Ncase M1. A lot smaller.
