Fire System Group Buy
OK, so NOPI is requiring these this season. The cheapest I found was $349 @ SafeRacer, but Firecharger www.firecharger.com has systems for $199. As always, they might give us a break if we have a big order. Would anyone be interested? It's a 5lb(2.3L) 2 nozzle system.

this is an interesting system, i'd be amazed that one little CO2 bulb could do an effective job at suppressing a fire. any idea if this meets the standards for any sanctioning bodies, or what it does to the harnesses/aluminum/plastic it hits? one of the advantages of Halon and its clones is the lack of collateral damage.

This is the $349 one at SafeRacer. The C02 cartridge looks the same as the FireCharger one to me.
Here's an install article from Grassroots

I am getting a fire system for the time attack car shortly as well.
however, I am getting Halon. The other stuff ruins anything it touches, and I don't want to have to rewire if some dummy accidentally sets off the system.

None and it still costs a **** laod of money. Becouse they can't make it anymore damn CFC regs 
halon is some valitile **** guys, and if you put it in a street car you would be violating some major epa ****. I think you still need a license to even handle/install the ****.

If I bite or not at $172 is dependent on how much other crap I have to unexpectedly spend money on around the time of sending money in for this.
I have a friend who may also want in on it @ $140 for his MR-2, I'll get back to you.

OK, another Fire Charger update. They will honor the group buy price for either system! 2 $140 or 3 nozzle $195, it doesn't matter! I have about 18 tentative people, and I'll post a list tonight. I plan on closing this group buy on Feb 15th.
Thanks!
Thanks!
