battery charging between rounds?

[Ed Wright]

Mike that is what I always did before I had an electric water pump. Old days, when my hair was still brown, I cooled the radiator with a garden sprayer, then started it up to rotate the water like you said.

I now have a cool down battery (stole the idea from Mike Edwards) and a connector I unplug my water pump and fans from the car, and plug in another battery I built a cable for, which is connected to a charger. That way the fans and water pump don't drain the batteries in the car during cool down.

Have had my wife haul it to the staging lanes (no charger) for cooling it before heads up and for class. Now I have the chiller and the piece with the quick disconnects and flapper in the lower hose I use for that. I use a digital temp gauge so I can hit my temps as close as possible every time. I don't use the chiller for "bracket mode", just the cool down battery.
