Heard that CCS and WERA require tank protection on that particular models of R6.
Quite honestly those cornerworkers used the extinguishers correctly. Aim at teh BASE, not the flame tips. One thing I;ve noticed cornerworking trackdays and races. Most track day workers are NOT race cornerworkers. Race cornerworkers generally are better trained. We dont just get handed a flag and a radio and sent out like track day groups generally do.

I was impressed with the "fire mohawk" on the guys helmet just after the crash. I wonder if can rig one of my old helmets with nozzles and a pony tank to create a "fire mohawk" helmet? That would be one over the street stuntas.

The extinguishers looked they just made the fire bigger.

I thought the second wreck was funnier than the fire. The first two guys to stop were waiting to see if the rider was able to extinguish himself. A third yellow rider cuts wide on the corner hits the gravel and bites the dust. The second rider looks back like WTF??? :ha
