[Amps] 12v interruption

[k7rdx]

The racing boats I am familiar with use a plug inserted into a kill switch 
mounted close to the driver...A kevlar cord is attatched to the plug and to 
the drivers wrist..In the event of an emergency,the driver simply pulls the 
plug OR if he`s somehow ejected from the boat, then it`s all automatic...Any 
boat supply should stock these..Jim,K7RDX..

Well, obviously you cant roll up the "juice box" as on the land drags but
what do the other boat racers use? It would seem that a kill switch to a
Ford style remote mounted starter solenoid would be rather simple. How do
you plan to kill the fuel flow?

Gentlemen,

Here is what I am trying to do.  I want to interrupt the circuit in my drag
boat in case of electrical fire or whatever so I want to be able to cut all
power.  I am leaning toward a interrupter switch from negative to ground.  I
don't need a crowbar. (sorry about out of context)
