That was from SAT session. 2 cars were written off. 1 burnt to the grd.

The turn 15 safety barrier was hit by a Subaru; car was smashed to bits & a total loss. Luckily husband & wife escaped major injuries...Singapore cars i believe.

heard from my friend who was at sepang the day that the accident happen..... it was a toyota pass that hit the safety barreier. it was a SG STI who was braking and entering turn 15 he downshift but he miss his gears (6th gear to 2nd gear or 5th gear to 2nd gear) he blew him engine straight away due to over rev.. thats why apon reaching turn 15 there is a puddle of oil there... the passo came and brake for turn 15 when he hit on the oil and lost control ... staright away hit the safety barrier

heard from my friend.. do not shoot me if im wrong.. hehehe

i dont know where the oil came from but the car that hit the barrier was definately a black SG STI since i was there for the RCA event & the accident caused abt >30min redlight

Wow this sounds pretty major. Hope no one was injured.

So the black SG STi is wrecked until total lost?

Then about the blowing engine STi, was it the one that burn till total?

Better equip ourselves with a fire extinguisher for those who intend to head to track day. There are two types of extinguishers, one is C02 and another is powder form. If I'm not mistaken, for cars we have to use the powder type. I believe ACE hardware sells the small portable fire extinguishers but not sure if it is C02 or Powder type.

Drive safe!

the car that was on fire was a yellow SG STI...dont know what had happened but the incident was at T1.....i was exiting turn 15 into pit that time & can see the smoke was up high clearly from T15...the front hood & tire melted...luckily driver escaped unharmed....cr to the marshall i guess...

Dawg, don't use the ABC powder fire extinguisher. You may extinguish the fire but the heat will bond the powder to the engine, so in the end you must replace the engine. I don't know how effective the CO2 gas is with big fires, or how many seconds before the extinguisher runs out. Anyway, the 2kg CO2 tank is very heavy and bulky.

Another extinguisher is a 2kg gas propellant called AF11E fire extinguisher. It's a liquid that when discharged turns into gas so leaves no residue. Search youtube for AF11E to see how it works. I bought my AF11E from Newstar Chemicals Sdn. Bhd.(yellowpages search it yourself) One thing they will advise you is the canister must be upright, or the nozzle will clog or get damaged. This is the same with ABC extinguishers. So I made a bracket to secure it to the same bolts for the strut bar in my boot.

Of course the best is a plumbed in fire extinguishing system from Sparco available from N1 Sunway. It would be RM2000+ but it will discharge in both your passenger cabin and the engine bay.

how much is that AF11E cost? TQ
