Ahem...

Page 88 of the 2011 IHRA Rulebook (General Regulations - All Classes) clearly states:

============
Cooling System: Antifreeze/glycol prohibited.
============

This has to be one of the most ignored rules in racing, followed closely behind by removal of safety equipment while still on track.

Sorry... but the IHRA's 2011 rule book draws NO SUCH DISTINCTION between "national sanctioned events" and "weekly track races" in its 19 page long "General Regulations - All Classes" section.

With that said, tracks are free to enforce rules which do not appear in the rulebook and look the other way to ones which are listed.

If anyone is interested on Saturday June 11th from 10a.m -2p.m we are holding an Advance Auto Parts Customer Appreciation Day at the Winter Road location in New Castle, PA. Its a nice low key get together with any truck, hotrod, or bike welcome. We sell refreshments for donations to the Ronald McDonald House of Akron. This is special this year as you guys see I am Campaigning it on the side of my car this year to raise awareness and money. They really helped us when we spent 70 days at Akron Childrens. I know its a long haul before a race but if you can make it ... we would appreciate it!

I hope the weather cooperates for you, Lou (and for all of us). Chances are I won't be able to make it out, but yaneverknow.

Someone correct me if this is not the URL for Josie's Facebook page:

thoughts out to the d.ickson family...

triplenickel they would have to eliminate most street car classes then if they enforce that rule at local tracks, how many daily drivers do u see out there, and u know they got anti freeze... thanks for the check up lou! and OBBY good idea man, ill keep the food coloring bottle on me for good measure hahahaha.. If we all just run water at the halloween classic we would all be screwed with the below freezing temps they get some years over night!
