I can recommend a handful of dry leaves on the turbofold. That will definitely give you a fire impression without any actual damage.

So, article request:
Lots of us inherit race car safety gear. Wether its from buying a new to us car, or scrounging on the cheap.
Can we get an article discussing the lsst decade or so of fire suppression systems? Like aff vs halon vs novac vs....
How to service what we have, check for proper installation and operation, make sure we have the right nozzles in the right place, etc?
I know that I have three partial fire suppression systems sitting here from old race car part outs, but cannot find the basics about them.

I'm usually very impressed by fire, especially if it is in the car with me.

In reply to Dusterbd13-michael :
I second this idea. Should they even be considered if they are over 10 years old?
