Hi Rod,
I have seen Super CJ's with coolant, green in color (anti-freeze) in the surge tanks....
I have been told it's because of the intercooler, but it sounds like BS to me....
Maybe they have been given special dispensation by the NHRA to do whatever they want......
I know that coolant will protect the cooling system but also screw up the track if it spills......
It could also be the Golden Rule......Whoever has the Gold, makes the rules..
