This stuff is awsome! I saw a 15deg drop after switching from water wetter to engine ice. Also no corrosion.
this would be great if is allow in our local trackday orgs :up:, is a pain in the ass to change fluids in tree bikes :down: hey things we have to do to have fun
I don't care if it's legal or not, using it on the racetrack is ridiculous. Would you want someone crashing because you spilled some coolant? Oil is a necessary evil, water is more than sufficient for coolant.
Thought about it but only after the "edit" time had elapsed.. Trouble with browsing about 6 different forums from dirt to roadracing. MYBAD!
+1. I just spilled some on the shop floor this afternoon. It might be "water soluble" but it takes a lot of effort to truly clean it up. I've always thought that it's track legality was crazy. JMO.
Im not following you guys. Everytime I have spilled some it wipes up just fine with no residue. I know Evins coolent is more like antifreeze but water wetter just dosent get the job done even with the big aftermarket raid I have. We put it in the super single and the combo of engine ice and a small oil cooler we droped 25 deg. Just the coolent change in the R1 we droped15deg. If im missing somthing please fill me in cause I just rebuilt both engins and was gona use this stuff again.
I think what Mongo was saying is that it is a slippery substance and it is still not a legal product as per the rulebook to use. I personally have no problems with using watter wetter and water as it keeps my ride from overheating better than water alone which works fine in most applications anyway.
If you're having cooling issues the liquid you use isn't really to blame. My issues with it is simple, it is a slippery substance that is unnecessary and can hurt riders if spilled on the racetrack. It doesn't clean up easily from asphalt, it doesn't evaporate without leaving a slippery residue.
The reason I went with it was due to the engine heat. We switched our endurance bike over and had great luck. Bike ran cooler over every stint and the impellers looked great at end of year tear down. On the R1 I switched due to we made it a superbike engine and with the extra heat we put the big 4 core raid with a chin oil cooler. I understand its slippery but I have never ran into a proab with this stuff beimg on the track. We have used it for years in racebikes without a proab. Also the stuff I spilt yest filling up the single wiped up with a papertowl with no residue left over. I will check with norm and make sure its legal in cmra but we have never had that issue come up. Does anyome know if its legal in usgpru?
