When I did my camaro, I thought having one system for the engine and one for
the driver was a good idea. I'd seen cars catch on fire from a carb backfire,
and had even experienced a little flare up myself. I figured no need to
discharge everything and fill the cockpit just for an engine fire. I was even
considering three systems for the Studebaker: One for the driver, one for the
engine with header nozzles as required in the rules, then a third smaller
system aimed at the carburetors just in case - - - catch the little one while
it's still little. Now I'm wondering. I'd like to hear a lot of feedback on
this as this is such a very important part of the car. Let's have comments from
a bunch of you more experienced racers.

Gary,
No need to loop the Halon, but I did use the same discharge tubing for
all three bottles with Halon, also.
