Ok guys - I am currently in discussion with SafeCraft in organizing a group purchase which should cover most of their product line. We have yet to work out the fine details however it does fore surely sound to be a go. After this weekend I hope everyone will open their eyes and set-up their cars to race "safe". :( It is so unfortunate that something like this always has to happen to trigger us to become pro-active but increased safety in our racecars is long over due.
Here is their website: www.safecraft.com
They offer some of the best safety components in the industry including some interesting complete "packages" which include Aluminum Racing Seat / Extinguisher Systems as a complete unit.
If interested in any of their products please email me and let me know which ones and I will get back to all of those who reply.
UPDATE:
Ok, I just got off the phone with Safecraft with pricing based upon "20" ( people / units purchased ) participating in the group purchase and is good for a month. If I get a huge response ( over 20 ) there is a good chance on obtaining better pricing. The pricing I was quoted ended up being a-little less of a savings than originally expected but still less than anywhere else ( Summit Racing / Jegs etc.)
SafeCraft Extinguisher Systems:
LT5 (5 pound) Drag Race Installed System - $265.
LT10 (10 pound) Drag Race Installed System - $403.
RS5 (5 pound) Drag Race Installed System - $327.
RS10 (10 pound) Drag Race Installed System - $497.
RS10 Funny Car Dual Cylinder (20 pound total) Drag Race Installed System - Requires (1) RS10 ($497.) + $480.
RS20 Funny Car Single Cylinder (20 pound) Drag Race Installed System - $784.
Shipping on the systems will go as follows:
The quote I got is for a 5 pound system which will be drop shipped directly from Safecraft to a "worse-case" continental designation west to east coast - $35. which includes a $20. Haz. Material Fee. (The bottles come completely full of Halon)
Good News: (maybe?)If I have the "entire group purchase order" shipped directly to "my" door shipping will be completely free / waved. This means that you will have to either pick-up your order from 48170 Michigan or if you can wait until NMRA Columbus 2004 I will pack-up my trailer and bring everything with me.

Please respond with all questions or orders either in this forum or directly to: snakehorse1@ameritech.net
No money is needed at this time - just your word on your participation and what product(s) you want. I will have to establish a cut-off date as this offer is only good for one month and we have to act fast. Please put the word out to others that might be interested,
This will be the smartest money spent this year on your race program.
Thanks - Rob :cool:
