Default battery disconnect switch

Many race tracks require a battery shut off in the cockpit if you have a trunk mounted battery. I said I would never race mine (still under construction) but I went donw to Road America once when a cobra club was using the track and was smitten. It's a lot easier (and cheaper) to install the "race ready" stuff during the build than to add it after. I don't give advice on builds since mine isn't compete and I made my share of mistakes, but I will say that I incorporated several things I might not have otherwise based on what Road America (Elkheart Lake) requires. Plus doing it now allowed me to make these things blend in and not look out of place and it left my options for race track use open. Just my two cents
