Default Refueling - At the track

Interested in hearing/seeing what everyone does at the track for their refuelling.

Im in the middle of making a mobile fuel decant station that is safe, easy to move and holds reasonable qty. (with fire extinguisher included) What's interesting is most online 12v fuel pumps you can buy are not suitable for petroleum (high flash point liquids)

Issues of earth straps and the like also become apparent. I currently have a little battery operated pump (go cart style) but having seen a product on the weekend using compressed air to reticulate fuel got me thinking.

Safety is paramount of course, but seeing guys refuel with possible heavy hi splash jerry cans and funnels around hot brakes and hot exhausts has lead me to consider what's the best arrangement?
