THIS statement says it all Garret and it's the reason why you shouldn't ask a stock/super stock racer advice on this topic.

That said, bracket races are typicaIly same day events, 2 time shots within a few hours of each other and go racing with the late rounds running minutes apart unlike Divisional and National events. Further, I double enter every big $ gambler race I enter as do many of my competitors, running minutes apart every round in eliminations. If I/they ain't puking fluid, you, test/tuning should never be puking fluid.

A good cooler and synthetic fluid is all you need. Matter of fact I don't use an aftermarket external cooler, rather I use the cooler in the OE radiator.
