    Coolant on slicks, throw away???

    A mate of mine had a high side a few days ago at Bernie Hatton, long story short coolant leaked onto his 3 lap old rear.

    Is it a throwaway? He was told coolant eats in to the rubber and will stuff the tyre?
    I'd be tossing it myself but thought I'd ask the question.

    I often get coolant on mine when I am bleeding and/or draining the system and never had an issue

    Yep, he's good, got knocked for a fair bit, and pins in his ankle.
