OMP has added three hand held extinguishers this year, running from £80 to £298. They are all FIA and Motorsport UK approved, and they contain three completely different things. Cameron on which agent belongs in a cockpit and which belongs in the workshop.
OMP now lists ten plumbed-in fire extinguisher systems and the names look like a random string of letters. They are not. Cameron decodes FAL, SAL, SST and the 6 and 7 suffix, and works out what an alloy bottle actually buys you.
Bell updated three carbon helmets for 2026: the HP77 Evo IV, the HP10 Evo-II and the HP10 Evo-II Rally WW. Cameron on why the full face one is built for open cockpit cars, the open face ones are built for cars with a roof, and the one detail on the Rally WW that will catch people out.
Sparco helmet kits use Peltor standard Nexus wiring, so they work with a Terratrip intercom. Which amplifiers plug straight in, and which need one adaptor lead per seat.
Not sure what fits, which approval you need, or what to choose next? Ask Garreth and Cameron. You’ll get a practical answer from people who handle the kit every day.
