Not these brackets Mike.

They look like a gloryfied piece of chicken wire

Mind you, you don't see the bracket anyway.

What you building there Mike - drumming? sounds like a British Leyland throwback!

Told ya Mike - turn the music up and the only drums you hear will be Cozy Powell's - now who remembers him?

For club track days I think you will need a substantial bracket with positive locking to keep the extinguisher in place and get through scruitineering. Revolution Raceware make such a bracket but I am sure Mike will make a better functioning and looking one.

I don't think it'll really be an issue, I just notice the bulkhead behind me makes quite a "bong" sound when you rap your knuckles against it. I guess by the time you cover it with carpet it wouldn't make any noise at all.

Part of it is just me trying to tie the chassis and body together at more points. After reading Mando's plan for tieing the front of the body down better I'm looking into that as well.

Cheers
