    Another coolant question

    I know that this subject has been beaten to death but I can't find anything official saying "NO" to Engine Ice for tracks around Colorado. Here is a link from their web site stating AMA supports Engine Ice but they don't specify road racing; although the pic is a road bike.

    Anyone have a link that states Engine Ice is a MRA or track no no?


    Thanks

    Engine Ice is a glycol-based additive, and as such is not allowed for MRA events. Water Wetter is the only approved additive, as far as I know.

    How bout the MRA rulebook.

    6.2.6 Miscellaneous Motorcycle Requirements
    A. Exhaust system tight; mufflers and megaphones secure; removable baffles safety wired.
    B. All exhaust retaining springs safety wired.
    C. All lenses taped.
    D. Brake and taillights disconnected and completely taped.
    E. Turn signals removed.
    F. Mirrors removed.
    G. License plate removed.
    H. Kill switch operational on handlebars.
    I. Side and center stands must be removed.
    J. Only water, Red Line Water Wetter, Royal Purple Ice (NOT Engine Ice or Evans coolant), or Silkolene Pro CCA coolant additives are allowed in liquid cooled motorcycles. Glycol based substances are prohibited.

    They pretty much prohibit all additives except water wetter, this makes it easy, water wetter or nothing.
