If you'll use a GOOD UPPERLUBE, like KLOTZ UPLON, you don't have to worry about the alcohol staying in the system, I've left mine over the winter, with Hilborn injection on it, and fired it off, and went racing in the spring, no problem, I even left it in the trailer one year, over the winter, with no issues, but, you need to make sure you have good alcohol, buy yourself an alcohol hydrometer, and ck every batch, BEFORE you pay for it, bad alcohol is probably 90% of the problem with it plugging up things.
