1. Cooling Intercoolers on Grid (score: 1)

An interesting point came up on the RX7 list - the use of pressurized CO2 to cool intercoolers on grid. Are people doing this at SCCA events now? Will there be people doing it in Topeka next month? P

It would help if you'd mention the class, next time, when asking rules questions, Paul! Make for shorter answers. :) In Street Prepared, 14.10.C specifically precludes this (it's new), as does 15.10.

I really don't think it's worth it, most intercoolers don't have much mass to them to hold the cold, so it's warmed back up again by the time you get to the start line. Conversely, the I/C gets prett

I would guess that depends on what angle the intercooler is at. If water sprayed (or poured) onto the intercooler can get through the cooler core and touch all of the surfaces, that'd be a more effic

Richard, the rules apply to cars while running on course. The CO2 idea was to be used while the car is parked in grid with an external cooling source. Just like spraying down your radiator or putting

Liquified CO2 at higher pressure than 1 bar is definitely colder than 32 degrees F when it expands. I used it in a QA capacitor lab to cool test chambers to at least -55 degrees C. I don't know how l

This is totally a semantics issue and I would consider a wennie protest if ever there was one. The Rules don't allow for water sprays in the grid to spray down tires or radiators. And we all know tha

Not really different. You are cooling part of the car, in the hope that it will run better if the given part is cooler. I don't think the exoticness of cooling substance is of any importance at all.

I think that cooling down any part of your car that gets hot between runs is perfectly legal. So long as you don't take that cooling device/method past the starting line and onto the course. Sure, wh
