i'd like to see EVERY push car/support vehicle have at least as a minimum , a 10 l bucket of oil spill material(kitty litter) , tarp(to throw under leaking vehicle),rags/towels,shovel,bags for contaminated salt(to be taken off site to a suitable location),and any special tools/equipment required for your race vehicle(Dzus tools etc).
All push/support vehicles must have a UHF radio (Channel ,5lb(2.5 k) fire extinguisher,flashing light(rotating beacon,mounted on the roof for visability to others),1st aid kit,and any other items particular to your race vehicle.
As an add on to Animals comment,Glycol (the green cordial),is not allowed any more.The requirements are Water in the cooling system,the only additive that passes is Water Wetter (Redline manufatures this product,should be available from the likes of Rocket,Performance Wholesale,VPW,etc),Gylcol is flammable in a vapour form (eg, a pin hole in a coolant hose ,causes the water/vapour to escape into a potential fire environment),Then there is also the environment! We must do every thing possible to protect the Lake we play on.One F up could mean the end of our race track.

Re: Spill Kit
So does this mean that Glycol is not allowed in only race vehicles or does this also apply to support vehicles?gennyshovel wrote: As an add on to Animals comment,Glycol (the green cordial),is not allowed any more.The requirements are Water in the cooling system,the only additive that passes is Water Wetter (Redline manufatures this product,should be available from the likes of Rocket,Performance Wholesale,VPW,etc),Gylcol is flammable in a vapour form (eg, a pin hole in a coolant hose ,causes the water/vapour to escape into a potential fire environment),Then there is also the environment!

Any spillage on the lake has to be reported to race control a full clean up including removing contaminated salt and refilling the hole must be done then a full report is given to the DEH and the Tradional owners [water based contaminates result in a big hole being dug] so no glycol and no pissing on the Lake
