I bet it was it a pretty hot day??? You can cool these things with Methanol also. Just bump up the fuel pres about 4 or 5 PSI. See how it runs. The radiators are kind of small for these cars so we also use a coolant recovery system on ours. Take a Lucas or other plastic 1 quart bottle and zip tie it to your frame just behind the radiator, run the overflow tube cut at a 45 degree angle to the bottom of the bottle. When the radiator heats up the coolant expands into the bottle and then when it cools the radiator creates a vacuum and draws it back into the radiator a lot of times even during the race.
You must be pushing her pretty hard now because this problem usually doesn't exist until you start really getting with the program.
