Bob Pearson should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Most things covered here already, but it may be worth reminding drivers of two trucks that single seaters have very little steering lock, so sudden changes of mind re the route back to the paddock which result in sudden changes of direction can result in us being "pulled over".
As for fire extinguishers, I'm not sure that we are typical, but quite frankly we have never seen a system in any of our cars which we would put any faith in, so in event of an on board fire we will be looking for guys and gals in orange. Those big bottles may be a pain in the bum to carry, but at least they are going to work.

That wasn't 2 trucks, it was tow trucks

In my capacity as reasonable person () I suggest two possibilities:

He backed out of competing. (Which I have seen happen some years ago.)
He decided to drive carefully.

You are obviously carrying them in the wrong way then.
