I'm researching fire extinguisher systems for my race car and I would like to know what people are using? What brand? Type? How many nozzles and why? How big? I see a lot of options out there and I'm uncertain which direction to go? There must be some sort of "certification, approval", agency/documentation one must have but I'm not sure. Thanks for your input!

if you go with halon (or halotron)
Do NOT put a nozzle in the cockpit you can suffocate and pass out in the car happened to friend of mine and luckily he only had minor burns when his friends pulled him (unconscious) out the window of a 914/6 that burned to the ground. he pulled the release pin and passed out before he could crawl out of the car. |
