Dry Ice in your fuel cell?

Not something as easily applied as dry ice. I still think the cooling of the fuel outside the car is the best option overall. Heck, just setting the fuel jug in a cooler with ice/water is a step ahead.

If you try it you better have your fuel cell well vented.

The rulebook says a cool can is legal in Stock and SS. It actually says, "One cool can permitted."

Wet towels, bags of ice, etc must be removed from the intake before a run, but a cool can is allowed to still have ice in it during the run. I was told to just make sure it does not leak water out of it.

When I lost my mind and started doing this again a few years ago I asked a division tech director why nobody used them now, and was told there could be nothing in it to cool the fuel going down the track, which makes it pretty much useless. Made no sense to me, it used to be perfectly OK.

I had a cool can in my old car. My new one will have one too. Out west and at altitude in temps above 65 it was worth .08-.10. Had to be careful if temp and DA dropped cause I actually failed fuel check once. Also ran the "plumbing insulation" from home depot on the hard lines to help keep cool in. Also this was on a "bypass" style system. constantly recirculating.

What caused you to fail fuel check?
