NEMO9632027 electrical kill switch requirements
Trying to wrap my head around the dragster kill switch requirement for 2027. Have always run a solid state electrical kill switch on the positive side with a second driver switch. The main kill is under the rear deck where the wing attaches and to the right of one of the parachutes. How are you going to mount a switch behind the tires that is also not obstructed at least somewhat by the parachutes? You would have to run a long unsupported rod beyond the parachute where what would instantly break off in a wreck negating the point, and most likely get wiped off by a parachute deployment every few runs (or fowl the chute).
