It is important. About everybody I know cools their fuel if they have a tough heads-up coming up. Chuck Nelson said not to chill it during a run. I used to use dry ice in the cool can on my '56 Chevy Jr Stocker. I don't have one now, I chill it before like Chuck said to. I have seen the fuel check take a second, kinda puzzled, look at my fuel temp at fuel check, they have never said anything. If they do look at the car, there is nothing to see. I have seen small freezers in trailers, just about right for a fuel jug. I don't have room for one. You shoulda walked through the staging lanes before SS class at Indy. LOL
