You're exactly correct. A/C does disengage at WOT, hence the water tank which will hold the chilled water. 1 extra gallon will provide enough reserve for a 1/4 mile run. Also, they offer a kit with an electric solenoid that will turn off flow to the car's evaporator, eliminating water dripping at the track, and also at the same time boosting the KC efficiency. I did not opt for that one. Yet.
