I recently moved my battery to the trunk, i was hoping to take it to the track before it get's to heavinly modified to see what it coulld do, however, to take it to the track in vancouver i have to have a battrey kill switch that when activated has to kill the engine.

so i tried pulling the power cable off and of course my car kept running off alternator power. so does anybody know what i can do to kill the car, i also have to have the switch at the furthest rear point outside the car.

also i was hoping to run it in sequence with another kill switch in the cockpit so that i could kill it myself if something happened and i needed to kill it from inside, and because when i am in good old surrey(car theft capital of NA) i can flick the switch as an immobilzer.

Thanks for any suggestions, i searched and could not find anthing on this topic.

There are two types of switches, one that just kills battery and one that disconnects the Alt also, you need the second type.
http://www.saferacer.com/ and http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/ have them for about $30
