It would probably have had cider in it

Theres a good few people that do have those own extinguishers - at rallies and some sprints (RAFMSA ones anyway) simply because we aren't provided with them for these events.

I'm truly staggered at that. Even if that is allowed, under MSA Regs that opens a whole load of questions.

Your average rally fair enough, fend for yourself but airfield sprints?! they aren't like autotests (which i've casually done lots of) that only need minimum provisions I can assume? I'd expect at least some fire cover to be provided on the day. I'd be horrified as a competitor knowing if the only backup I would have is up to the marshals paying up to £50 for an extinguisher that might not even get refilled if used?
