Glycol free Coolant

Post by zxsixr03 »

As this has been designed for race meets when standard glycol coolants are banned, does any one know if its allowed in St George and FX meets

Its 100% glycol free

Either way i grabbed some this morning from MCAS Auburn

Blurr this is the stuff i mentioned to you on Friday at FX, i can't find anything in the rules to say its not allowed but have sent Terry a email to confirm

It has been mentioned with Terry previously, and i thought the outcome was "water only"

im all for having some non slippery coolant. especially in summer. we wont have any more dramas till october/november now anyway. :?

Worth another try but 8)

MA rules state water only, doesn't say anything about glycol, so until the rule changes these race coolants will not be allowed. This gets brought up every year, and has not changed yet. I don't expect it to change too soon.

If you are that worried about corrosion, run distilled water.

Not worried about corrosion, i blew head gasket, rings etc from over heating using water, bought a new track bike and trying to do all i can to prevent it happening, Samco silicon hoses etc... even looking at the Rad spray bar from OPP racing
