My vocabulary probably ruined that for everyone, my bad. I see an ignition switch as a drivers primary kill because of a near catastrophic accident I had at Windrock one day......I was in rattlerock & had gotten in my buggy with the intention of backing it up a little to make room for someone else to exit left. I had a helmet on, but didn't strap in because...... Well, my accelerator pedal broke from its mount & magically wedged perfectly behind my brake pedal, so perfectly that as the brake was applied so was the throttle, and the buggy started gassing out in reverse. My brain said apply more brake cause you want to stop while I'm fumbling for the ignition toggle switch covered by my lap belt, all while bouncing in reverse & my vision unable to focus on anything. Friends said I leaped in the air backwards & I finally got it shut down. Shaking.....& wondering how tf I came out of that unharmed I knew I needed a solution and I knew the toggle wasnt it.My ignition kill is positioned where my hand naturally lays when my arms are at rest so there's no reaching for it & operated by muscle memory. My master kill (electical short/fire) is positioned rear/outside cause getting out should be #1.PS: using a remote battery disconnect, my switch could also control it, thus becoming the master kill switch as well. But for me I find it useful to keep it seperate. In the end...... I like to have a stand alone engine kill function that can be operated in the dark with a slap motion. The toggle or button is subpar.
