I used it several years ago. It works okay but is incompatible with water. So if you find yourself on the side of the road with a small coolant leak, you can't just add water.
And it is 'oily' feeling. I don't know if drag strips would allow it. In theory it sounds great, but until it is widely available, I won't use it again. When I got it, I had to buy it from a guy who met me at a gas station halfway between my house and his, since he was the only dealer for 100 miles around.
When I swapped the cam in that motor, I ended draining the coolant, and had it in old gallon oil containers for about 12 yrs. I ended up just recycling it with used motor oil.
Unless you want to carry some around with you all the time, I think you are better off with coolant you can just add water to in an emergency.
But the oily feeling did make me think that it could be possible to maybe eliminate the two cooling/lubrication systems and have one fluid for both cooling and lubrication.
Imagine a super slippery liquid that could be used in both the crankcase and the cooling system. Seems like that would simplify things. This evans coolant if thicker seems like it would be close.
