An LPG safety switch is what I've always used. Simple if the coils not pulsing it swiches off.

Shorter diff, front brakes. Hmmmm

I run discs on the rear only on the ute and deliberately "knock" the pads off as l drive to the startline and not use the brakes before the run. As the Rev says when l lift my foot at 175 it scrubs speed all by itself quite well. I don't use the chute I can't see fronts only being a proble...
