Faster Engine cooling

Is there a faster way to cool down the engine? After every pull I have to wait 10 or 15 minutes untill I can do another pull. Is there perhaps a better coolant that I can get that might cut this time down?

it's that way for every car man.. the engine makes a lot of heat, and it takes a while to get rid of it.

want it to cool down faster?
remove the thermostat, install a pump that will circulate water even when the engine is off, and run the radiator fans all the time.

Second rad in the trunk, long hoses, 2 fans. Now coo ling would be 2minutes?

Water mist spray into rad, on engine. Works wonders.
