Default Fuel radiators?

My bro works for a race team that runs sports cars & they run a small fuel rad to keep the fuel temp down.

Has anyone heard of this or used one on a honda?

It does sound like a good idea for hot days i guess but not for 1/4's tho i guess you could pop some dry ice next to the rad?

I's say that is taking it too far for a street car.

How hot does it get in the UK?

I think it would have no effect on a honda! At least on a street car!

the gains you'll get off of it will be negligible. a little heat isn't so bad as it helps fuel atomization.....to a point.
