I might be interested in one, too.

Hey, FatBob, is your car going to be ready for the Buttonwillow race in five weeks?

I had no intention to be done until October when the weather cools down. The hardest part of the rollcage is done. I would be surprised if I am done in 5 weeks. Too many vacations taking me out of town. I'll keep you posted on my firecharger results. I buying this kind because I like AFFF over halon and it is user rechargable with a service kit.

thats funny...I just wanted to give a forum vendor the business. Actually, in 10 years of tracking I have been on fire once and that was plenty! ESS is a cool system because it is user recharable and nasa/scca legal. If you ever try to get a recert on a halon or afff tank you will know why this is an issue. With has mat charges it is almost as expensive to buy a new unit than recharge. Almost no one asks about this when they buy fire systems.
