I like how much of a stir i\'ve caused with one photo of a fire extinguisher lol I can never get endless safety warnings when I post pics of the outside of the car
Not stiring cos I think its great you\'ve added an extinguisher , I think everyone should.
But if your using it for motorsport , even if you add the required 2 straps it wont pass the grade mounted where it is.
That metal bracket doesn\'t have sufficient strength regardless of what fixings you\'ve used.
Just tyring to help.

The majority of the field is quality classics ( BDA\'a , RX7 , RX3\'s , Datsun SSS , Group B 240RS ) or very fast 4wd Turbos ( Evos , Impreza\'s and a Porsche 993 Turbo )
And one notable entry Leigh Marston in the RDL Impreza WRC replica.
