It is always sad to hear about someone loosing their Cobra in a fire. But let this be a lesson to everyone else that at least one and maybe two good fire extinguishers be around the shop at all times. They are absolutely necessary when starting up an engine for the first few times. In fact, when I test fired my engine I had a friend standing by with a firextingusher.

In addition, a Halon unit should be in the car at all times and it is a good move to install a fire suppression system in addition to the cockpit mounted hand held unit. Plastic burns fast.
