Water wetter

How much Water wetter are your suppost to use per gal of water.
I drained my coolant so I can go open track racing and need to know how much water wetter to use.

 

[mgcook]

it will tell you on the bottle

this stuff any good?

I know it tells you on the bottle But I read somewhere that for open track racing that you double it or just add the whole bottle.

I run coolant and 1 bottle in my car. Daily driver and open track car. If your not having any overheating issues in stop and go traffic or any goofy high speed cooling issues you will be just fine. When I track my car I dont get above the R in NORMAL. Even on a hot rainy day when I shut my windows and use my AC on the track the car has never gotten above the R. I do have a fluidyne but I'd imagine if the car does not overheat on the street it shouldent on the track.

HA...and people say AC has no place on a race car.

I use two bottles of WW and fill the rest with distilled water.
Been doing this for the last 4 summers and no problems with cooling or equipment.

Yea mgcook I would look into you cooling system. Make sure your fans are coming on, the t-stat is good and your radiator isnt scaled up and/or excessive damage to the fins. But yea as I said...if you dont overheat or get too hot in the situations mentioned above you wont have any issues at the track. You wont be idling excessively so you should have good coolanty flow and with the speed comes good airflow across the radiator so its not hard to keep things cool....as long as you dont have any issues with the cooling now. But I guess the other guys chimed in with proper amounts of water wetter if you do go that route.
