In this video we install a fire suppression system and address the different types of fire exthinguiser for race cars.

Great and informative video Steve. One critical thing with the angle / tangent of extinguisher jet is to avoid the face. Sounds counterintuitive but you need to be able to see in the event of an issue plus the sudden explosion of material in the face has a massive impact on the individual using valuable time no the ability to see / breathe. Excellent production Steve , keep them coming.

[@D3Sshooter]

Indeed, and very good point that you bring this up... In my case the are away from the face....

It's always a pleasure to watch your videos. Great production quality. And off course everyone has their own way of doing things but I would like to advise the other viewers not to drill in to their cages. There are nice cage clamps available, or in worst case, just hose clamps.

[@D3Sshooter]

Great point! the wholes I made are extremely small, You could also weld it. But very good point

[@andrepienaar6459]

Do all the nozzles branch off the one connection to the tank?

[@D3Sshooter]

in this system yes , but you can run other systems with a split

[@phildem414]

I see some lightening in the doors frame. How much is feasible reasonably?

[@Serious-Man]

How is the system tested once all components are installed?

[@D3Sshooter]

There are a few ways by just blowing compressed air from the pipe at the bottle ( disconnect first) and see if you have a good flow. as for the handles that is so simple . Thank you fo the comments

Hi Steve, where do you expect to race on 17th march? Thanks, David.

[@D3Sshooter]

17 March is actually a shake down at Mettet...

[@davidleleux4948]

@@D3Sshooter Hi steve, thanks a lot for your answer, I drove for a trackday to Mettet last year with my Elise. I hope coming 17th march to meet you if I have the time. 👍👍.

[@D3Sshooter]

@@davidleleux4948 , That is cool... I used to have a 135r Lotis Elise... Note that Mettet is CRAC trackday, ideal to test the `mgb `gt' as long as it does not rain

[@davidleleux4948]

@@D3Sshooter I know, i saw your videos about your Lotus, i follow your channel since quite a long time and i really like it. What do you mean by CRAC ?

[@davidleleux4948]

My Elise is also an S2 but "type 23" limited edition.

[@joereedmusic9853]

What happened to 'Purple K' powder ?

[@D3Sshooter]

As far as I am aware that is not oin the FIA annex K, so I did not see it on the market
