Rob, the reason I asked was that my liner shut off is in the front third of the car, but not extreme front. Actually in the very front of the foot box near the driver. The rule books do not specify "extreme" front, and I have seen other streamliners that used a door for access.
Like you, I have the entire electrical system fused with a 400 amp fuse.(just enough that engine starting wont blow it) Any short to ground will pop the fuse as well as complete deactivation from the drivers steering wheel thru an automotive solenoid. I really thought I had it covered every which way.
The electrical switch is push to de-activate, but to reset, the hatch is necessary. I suspect most liners have switches that are hidden from the air but can't really remember specifically what cars.
At any rate most liners also if they are on their roof, will need to be up righted to open or cut canopy and cage since most are hinged. I realized they made Sparky change to extreme end, but if the rule book changes don't specify extreme ends of the vehicle...
?there is room for the shut off being "near" the front or rear as you and I have done.
I seldom disagree with SCTA/BNI rules since they are all about safety for the drivers and I am seriously in favor of overbuilding, but there are so few liners I think the safety crews will become acclimated to each specific location. Perhaps not.
I will work on "Plan B" however not a simple thing with my current body design. (both ends are complete enclosures.)
Love your car, and hope to see it run blindingly fast.
