We have discussed checking our fire system lines and blowing them out
periodically to insure their being able to operate.

Here's another item to check. While dissembling the Hondaliner for paint I
removed the bottle activation cables and discovered that one was frozen solid.
I mean frozen so tight that it wouldn't move even when beating the button as
hard as I could with my fist. Obviously this would have been a disaster if I
had really needed it and hadn't check prior to putting it back on the race
course.

The winter is a good time to check everything.
