Haha you may call me Morg ;)

These small FE's are only 1kg which isn't going to be much help in a massive car fire but you never know if it will help someone one day who has smoke billowing out of their engine bay!

Was talking to Aek after the last GoKarting night and he was able to help someone years ago with one he had in his car.

Plus I'm pretty sure you have to have a secured FE when on a track...

Is your life?

For GoPro mount? I've been looking into them but I think I've spent enough on snow gear for one season :s

FE comes with the bracket that it clicks into.

All I had to buy was a length of steel to bolt to the seat, which I'll bolt the FE bracket to ;)

Sorry Morgs, but how will a 1kg extinguisher save my life :P

Helmet is to protect my brain when I do rails/jumps, and clock 60km/h + down some slopes ;)

Maybe stick the gopro up there. But think it looks dicky haha!

I was pretty close to concussion a couple of years back. Smashed my face, could see stars for a while, and blood was coming from somewhere.

Adam also thought this was funny haha. I have a dent on my board as a reminder too.
