battery kill switch
I'm looking into relocating my battery, but to comply with NHRA I'd need to have a kill switch mounted on the rear of the car that when flipped would not only kill battery power, but would also kill the engine. It seems to me that if I just had the kill switch routed to the battery, the engine would keep running on alternator power. So how did you guys wire this up? I would like to avoid having the kill switch positive in the event I get rear-ended on the street...
