Thanks
I just want to say thanks to the two guys (I don't know there names )that came and helped me put out the fire I had in the pits at Fontana Ca yesterday. I had used up my fire extinguisher and my wife and I were pouring on water the flames were getting bigger and they came with another extinguisher and put it out and the fire only burned the engine compartment.
Thanks

If I remember right, it's because it's not mounted to their standards. I.E., it can become a missile in a crash.

By the way, always use halon bottles. No mess like those powder things make. You just have to keep well meaning people from shooting your fire with the powder units. Ask me how I know, lol.
