No problem. Always for promoting safety and I bet you move pretty quickly with that monster! OG Racing is near you so you may want to give them a ring and/or take a look at the website to get some ideas on cost and application. If price is no object the carbon fiber bottles are the lightest and you should get one that sprays the engine, passenger compartment, and the front trunk/fuel compartment. Best bet is to go with the largest bottle as that will ensure that all three are covered in case you need it. This is the one that i had in 10lb form.

It is halon but there are other choices as well. Check out this page for more information on Aqueous Film Forming Foam type of suppression. Makes a massive mess but you are not on fire so it all equals out

No matter what your research check with Charlie on what he would like for your car. The safer we are the more comfortable we can be going fast!

Thanks, ElTorrente. Actually, it frightens me too sometimes. Just when I think I've got it figured out, it shows me another side of its personality.
