 Very interesting clip, though. Just this past weekend we moved our primary kill switch to the interior of our LeMons car. At last event, the scrutineers commented that they wanted the switch moved away from the outside. They've had too many incidents where debris (yes...prolly more likely in LeMons race  ) has hit the kill switch and the driver is unable to restart the car.

Shame to waste a swallow like that.
I made the external kill switch a pull type. You have to tug on it rather than use a swallow.

Probably a good thing the swallow hit the cutoff switch. He Zinged the hell out of that poor motor at :45.

Could have been MUCH worse.

My kill switch is just above the battery (minimal extension of high-amp wiring), mounted on an OG Racing mount that made it very easy. I used bicycle brake cable and covering (so it won't get hung up when pulling it), made a loop in the end by crimping the wire to itself (put that loop through a bit of vinyl tubing so it won't hurt my finger or scratch the paint), and the loop sticks out of the front lid just in front of the driver's door. Someone had once suggested I needed access inside the car, too, but I have the key switch for that. (http://dorkiphus.net/porsche/showpos...&postcount=566)
