Most tracks -obviously- don't have a full fire department. Unfortunately many times they just have to let the car burn to the ground. There was a similar fire at my local track and there is nothing they could do. You need a professional fire department and a tanker truck to take care of a fire like that.

I don't know if you noticed, maybe you somehow missed the burning car and the 3 or 4 people with fire extinguishers that tried to put the fire out, but a fire extinguisher isn't going to do **** for you in that situation, even moreso, the fire extinguisher that you'd have in your car, one of those little foot long ones is going to do even less.
