Default Dry ice?

Was that dry ice being put in the fuel cell of Emmons car? Did anybody notice how many time Erica checked the air pressure on Emmons car? Is dry ice legal? and how much ET pick up can you expect on a hot day? Just in general. I know each combo is different. . Great job by Emmons team making it to the finals.

I don’t know. Just asking about putting it in your fuel. New to stock eliminator. Just wondering if I need to do it also.

No it's not illegal to use in the correct places at the track.

Does NHRA allow us to add anything directly to the fuel?

At the old Vegas track I had a heads up and put fuel in fuel jug, set jug in ice chest. Covered fuel cell with wet towels and ice. Filled car with cold fuel and picked up a tenth. I was still 2 tenths behind but it did work on a 90 degree day

What difference does it make how many times Erica checked the air pressure?

I not gonna name names but a few year ago I stood guard as my boy D2 racers
Put dry ice right into the fuel cell. I wanted do run but as he said Perrone dry ice is just real cold air just don’t tight fuel cell lid. Lol

It shouldn't matter if the lid is tight if your vent is working properly.
