For us the big problem is condensation on a cold car. If its sweating on the outside its sweating on the inside. When the water evaporates it forms rust on the cylinder walls and valve seats.

Thanks for the input I will get antifreeze in it and I like fogging oil to help with the rust. I know I have seen the intake and block with condensation on them.

We close the fuel valve (we use one near the regulator) and run the engine. Or just run the engine with the fuel pump shut off.
While running the engine, pour "Marvel Mystery Oil" into the carb to lubricate and protect the internals of the engine while not in use.
As soon as your see smoke, kill the engine!
We also drain the fuel cell!

Our Engine Builder suggests to "fog the engines" with Marvel Mystery Oil after each race!

Since I started fogging mine, in the trailer, at the end of each day, my cylinder walls stay looking like new. I also use Marvel Mystery oil.
