You've probably thought it through already but make sure its absolutely secure as even quite a small shunt could send a 8kg missile full of acid flying into the cockpit space - not nice

turbojolt, its all about weight distribution (well in my case) and it can have a positive effect if done efficiently, obviously after stripping a car and cutting out what wasnt needed etc the weight loss means moving something like battery has more of an effect compared to say a fully laiden normal road car
