This Might be part of the problem, you get in an accident, shut your power off, first guy there thinks he’s turning it off and has turned it back on...
It should also be mandatory if you have one inside the car it moves the lever outside the car also, which I’m sure most people already do

The disconnect inside the car will not be affected by the outside disconnect being in the on position. The outside disconnect feeds the inside disconnect.

Check the current class rules for your car. My guess is yes. Battery in trunk = rear deck mount cut off.

Now, back to the battery location issue. I have a 2008 Buick Lucerne, stock battery location is under the rear seat. My 2015 Camaro has the battery in the trunk, from the factory, so do the newer Vettes. These batteries are no relocated, wonder when the NHRA will start looking at these vehicles and making people put a switch in the rear of the car. And what about those electric vehicles............ |

It's sort of a side step instead of a total thread derail, but I'm pretty amazed that no one seems to be concerned with batteries in electric cars.
Ever seen a vid on Youtube where some idiot shorts the battery of a vaping device and it goes into thermal runaway? Hellfire and carnage results. Teslas use the same battery. But they have 8000 of them in their battery packs. Haven't heard a peep from the NHTSA, nor DOT for that matter. |
