[Spridgets] Kill switch

[Weslake1330 at aol.com]

When the car is presented for scrutineering and the scrutineer, sometimes  
this is ME throws the switch with the engine running you'd prefer the alternator 
 diodes not to be fried, especially if the race is a long one.
 
I guess if you roll the car at least it's something else (the alternator)  
you don't have to fix.  Also, it could be the car hasn't been rolled just a  
heavy crash, driven unconcious,engine stalled but fuel pump running.  Could  just 
be the car's on fire and the driver's ran away from it with the engine and  
fuel pump(s) still running.
