cool down cart

[jminor]

who's got instructions on making one?

[Skinner]

A couple of quick disconnects, a tank, a cart, and a 12 volt pump.
And don't forget,,,,,hose
oooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A guy on amsnow had a nice one, new for 175.00

[YAMMIEGOD 3:16]

DAVE CALLS IT A TANK BUT I HAVE SEEN GUYS USE A PICNIC COOLERS. 3:16(tony)

[jminor]

I've seen coolers and heard of using fish pumps, that's why I askedbecause the fish pump line is way smaller than you need so it could be b.s.

[Skinner]

Dave calls it a tank because Dave don't like anti-freeze all over the inside of the trailer. If you can find a poly-propelyne tank with a wide mouth and a screw on lid, its easier to contain without all the mess. You can buy those tanks at the F & F speed shop (aka: Fleet Farm). You can also buy compression fittings for your inlet and outlet. But you are right Tony, lots of guys use picnic coolers

Josh, I thought you asked about a cool down cart,,,,not an aerated minnow bucket,,,LOL

BAGS OF ICE AND A LEAF BLOWER FOR CLUTCHES WORKS BUT IS HALF ASS. I WILL HAVE A COOL DOWN BUILT FOR TAR NEXT SEASON. 3:16 (tony)

Josh, Tonys right, Ya need to circulate the coolant. I think I have a spare pump I can send your way for a helluvalot of Canadian Whiskey!!! Put one together with the picnic cooler, it sure would beat the snot out of a ghetto bag of ice

[jminor]

LOL!A little is better than nothing I guess.

[VVMAXX]

Josh, I have a D&D cool down cooler it uses a teel pump and a cooler with the plastic quick disconnect and a small motorcycle Battery. I can get a photo for you if you want.

[Skinner]

LOL!A little is better than nothing I guess.

Joshuaaaaaaaa
The pump is the most expensive part. The rest is nickel dime sh-t. If ya wanna build one, I will send you the pump. You can bring the whiskey to Jacobies to share with all the max4.com members

[jminor]

Thanks Skinner but I'll start with the pics from vvmaxx whenever you have time, I'll pm my email, thanks. As serious as I am at this point you will get better use from that pump than I will but it is a generous offer. Thank you. As for the whiskey, I'll still bring it but can you Americans handle anything more than light beer from Canada???LOL! Back me up vmax535!!!

[Skinner]

Sounds to me like your callin the Americans out:3star-war

Leave the sleds on the trailer and we'll do some racin to the bottom of the bottle. Ya best bring along more than 535, now your racin amatuer stock class against the open mods!!!!!!!!! :4fzfo8: I'll take Jeremy Miller, Tim Beaverson and Rick Kucklok on my team.

And BTW: Seems to me the last time I ran into you guys there were only two soldiers left stand'in, 1 American and 1 Canadian. Your Canadian counterparts left ya there to take the hit for the team. So bring the hooch and we'll have the finals at Jacobies,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and may the best man win!!!!!!:drink1:

Don't forget to build your cart, you'll need it to cool down your liver.

[Ike]

LOL! Maximum velocity racing just got a hole new meaning!! You guys need to bring few finns :flagge_fi there as a foreing line up:party: :drink1: :Flush: . Just like in the NHL.

actually, a small bilge pump from any hardware store works fine I paid 20.00 for mine an old cooler acouple of quick connects from bell ind. hse and stole my kids wagon and there you have it for 50.00,By the way I found cold water works much better than ice and its easier on the motor.

[Skinner]

Cmon over Ike, we'll sign ya on.
Brakes: I believe ya with the cold water on tar. I think we would have one hell of a mess when we got home if we cooled those sleds down with water and loaded em on the trailer at 10 below

[YAMMIEGOD 3:16]

ANOTHER FACTOR ON TAR FOR COOLING IS NO ANTI-FREEZE. CAN,T HAVE ANY SPILLS. YOU GUYS KNOW THE STORIE THERE. BESIDES STRAIT COLD WATER WORKS FINE. 3:16 (tony)

Pretty good write up on a cool down cart.

[jminor]

thanks for the link, that's a great idea hes got for that cart!

[VMAX535]

Really good article. Thanks for sharing.

Josh, I'll be your back-up anytime.

I use to use a 5 gal. steel pail, closed 50/50 mixed bilge pump system. In the winter it could just sit on the ice. In the summer I would use water in it. And bring an extra 10 gallons in jerry jugs and just change it once it the water got hot. Many tracks have a water tap somewhere. So a water supply in the summer was not usually a problem. The extra 10 gallons would usually be enough.

Finally! Somebody needs a talent I can provide, Been in training my whole life. Send me in coach, I won't let you down!:653:

If you use a radiator try to use an aluminum one as it will dissipate the heat quicker. I picked a used one up off of Ebay for $35.

[jminor]

what would be nice is an aluminum one that fits in the stock location of the vmax4.
