Which leaves me with the question, what about the crash switch for EFI 
fuel pumps?  Would it be a good idea to have one in line with an 
electric fuel pump just in case you are unable to use the master 
electrical switch?

I have one in line with the electric fuel pump in my 1960 Land Rover for 
just in case.  I mounted it next to my driver seat so I can reset it if 
it went off while off roading.  I frequently off road my Land Rover, 
often climbing over rocks and it has not gone off yet.

It seems to me like this could be a useful crash safety device on race cars.

Thoughts?
