Default Plumbed In fire extinguisher system. Advice needed !

Hi Guys.
At the moment I'm preparing my Classic for next year MSV Track Day Trophy series. Looking to buy a plumbed in system which has to be approved by MSA.
Came across this one which seems to be a real bargain !
http://www.jjcraceandrally.com/race/...5ltr-hand-held

Any one using these ?

Also, could you recommend me the best nozzle pointing positions ? I mean what to point them at ?
(I have never deal with fire extinguisher system in the car so any tips would be great)

Thank You

I would ring Alyn at AS Performance as he can supply them and you can actually talk to someone about your needs rather than guessing with people on the web

Hi there

We have fitted Lifeline 2000 Extinguisher System

Nozzles are pointed on the engine bay,depends if you have fuel cell,I would add one extra nozzle which will point on the fuel cell

I would suggest to you buy one extra Handheld Fire Extinguisher,which will be somewhere near to yours hand

You can get a bottle serviced and re dated, places like merlin Motorsport do that it's about £40

Thanks a lot guys. As always - VERY helpful !!!
I'll be calling Alyn today anyway as I'll be ordering Buddy Club seat rails so will ask him about this as well.

Domino46,
How old is this bottle mate ? Asking because it needs to be still in date ? Otherwise scrutineers won't accept it :-(
