what to run in my radiator/overflow
Any ideas on what i should be running for coolant? I've been using some 50/50 Prestone but i feel bad about using coolant on the track for safety reasons even though my hoses are good and everything you never know. If i were to just run water with some water wetter what kind of ratio are you guys running for best performance? Thanks.

Antifreeze also has lubricants for things like the water pump, as well as rust inhibitors. Are you concerned about that? Is the boiling pt of h20 and antifreeze significantly different to worry about?

well i read that adding watter wetter helps lubricate the pump and all of those other things that coolant seems to do but i have no experience with it.

Most folks with dedicated track or race cars run distilled water and water wetter.
