More antifreeze, anyone?

Since this seems to be a fairly astute group of neo-chemists, :-)
I would like to ask a question.  A few years ago, I was talking
with a fellow SCCA racer, and he said that he used water with a
water wetter instead of antifreeze because water did a better job
of removing heat from the cylinder head.  Can anybody support or
refute this claim about heat transfer with antifreeze?  He felt
that the engine ran hotter with antifreeze, but I don't recall
how much hotter he felt that it ran.
