and that went away as soon as I started keeping it on a battery tender between events. These days, I race the SRF so damn much (eleven weekends and counting) I don’t think the battery would notice if I didn’t keep it on a tender (but I still do…).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">In the 1990s we were going through batteries like toilet paper. Right or wrong we assumed ‘over charging’ was the cause. Then we started using trickle Tender chargers when ever the car was stationary for any length of time. Our problems
went away.<o:p></o:p></p>
