Cool can??
 

A cool can for fuel?
I see some of "my elders" still using them?
Will I see any improvement with one?

Re: Cool can??
 

I dont see them used much any more. I think its because they can leak.

I asked our Div 4 Tech Director, Chuck Nelson, about those at the Tulsa LODRS race. He told me you can have one, but can't have any ice, etc, in it going down the track. Only to cool the fuel back in the pits prior to the run. Has to be gone before the run.

Don't think I need one now.

I run one it's worth .04 ( i think their was a stink about dry ice a year or so ago)

I don't leave home without mine .You can have ice in it in IHRA. Cool can with no ice is like no cool can at all. I ran mine once and forgot to drain water out of it and got backed off and lost my run. That was my fault and i paid for my mistake. Never had it leak with ice in it.283 was fooled when weather changed so it made it wayyy more consistent and like Greg ,it was .06 faster.

I ran dry ice in my old N/S '56 Chevy back in the '70s and nobody said a word. It was worth .05 or so. I understand about the leaking with regular ice. Not sure why they would care about dry ice. If everybody can do it, what is the advantage? It doesn't drip on the track, right?

With a small fuel cell there are much easier and more efficient ways to cool the fuel
