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!

I have a Firecharger refillable system with three nozzles: One on the fuel cell, one above the engine pointed at the carbs, and one below the steering wheel pointed at the driver's crotch.
The pull handle is right next to the Driver's side rear-view mirror so I can reach it as well as any track workers. Then I ALSO have a halotron 2.5 lb extinguisher on the center console next to the driver. |
