I've been watching an ALMS race and I've never given much thought to the fueling procedure.
After the fueler disconnects the fuel/vent hoses from the dry break, someone over the pit wall shoots a liquid at the dry break. It almost seems to be a foaming agent of some sorts. Is this to knock down vapors in the air around the dry break to mitigate the risk of a fire?
