Water + Water Wetter?

In my Miata, I ran straight water with Red Line Water Wetter, but I didn't care about any consequences (ie corrosion). I recently burst a coolant line on track and caused a few folks to go flying off the track; thankfully, no damaged cars, just fun stories, but I like to be a good track citizen when I can be.

So, what do you folks do for coolant in your track cars? I live in Houston, so I'm not real concerned about freezing weather. My main concern is not to allow corrosion, making sure the water pump is lubricated properly, etc.
 
I ended up putting water and Red Line WaterWetter in. RLWW is supposed to have lubricants, corrosion inhibitors, etc. I also didn't bother to drain the system, so there was apparently a fair bit of coolant still in there. I did put about three to four gallons of water in, all said.
