I wouldn’t think onboard extinguishers were a recent addition. They did say that it is an automatic system that comes on once the affected area of the car reaches a certain temperature. There was flame-broiled McDonald’s car earlier in the race. I can’t believe Kingsford sponsors a car, though.

I think it must be the emphasis being put on them by MRN announcers. I had never heard them mentioned before, but the last couple of races, MRN announcers point out: the driver was able to get the fire extinguisher ...

Great race last night.

And to all of our Racing Fan Mothers:
