can i run liquid ice coolant all the time?

im doing a track day at steets of willow saturday and they require you to replace the coolant with a non glycol based coolant (water wetter, liquid ice, etc....) which i just did. other track days ive been to didnt require it so this is the first time ive ran it.

my question is can i run it all the time? im not in danger of it freezing ever due to where i live. but its expensive and kind of a waste to use it for a day then drain it again. i hear it actually cools better than normal coolant? but i dont wanna run it more than just for the track day if ts gonna cause corrosion since its mostly water.

I have been running Engine Ice exclusively for years now and no problems to report. It is also a glycol, but propylene as opposed to ethylene, the former said to be non-toxic. The only thing, as i s the case with any coolant, is to respect the freezing point if you store it in an unheated area during colder temps.....
