Yeah, I would probably do that, or just drill a hole in the bumper. On one of my Neon racecars, I had it go through the tail light, so that I could just swap tail lights when I didn't want it.

I am lucky here, since I pretty much race out of my local track, and they barely care if you wear a helmet! I do stay safe for the most part though

Put 18 miles on the car tonight, and it didn't break *laughs*

Those tires are pretty good so far! Let's see how they do once I start throwing some power at them!

Correct, no power steering on my car, but when it's ~ 2500 pounds, it's not bad at all. I don't even think it's a big deal, but I am not a wimp

Here is a picture of the battery in the trunk for ya:

I'm really confused on your battery setup. I like how you ran it but, running a wire to the fuse box, alt, and starter doesn't make sense to me. lol

Maybe I'm just missing the point, either way I love this thread and how its come together quickly.

What is confusing about it?

The starter, fuse box, and starter all need / give power, and each have a wire on your car now. Nothing is different, just the placement of my battery is in the trunk, instead of in the engine bay.

I got it now, must be a Monday thing. When i was reading this I thought that the wire was ran to the fuse box, then the starter, then the alt. I don't know why I thought that but thats how it came out in my brain. Anyways, great work!
