RULE 3.I.1 Fuel Shut-off

Hi - I have 2012 rules and it doesn't mention oil pressure switch

It does mention inertia/impact sensor so I have installed one

PLUS I have alternator signal cut-out (like an oil pressurs switch) plus a 'fuel pump on' switch plus the battery kill switch that will all deactivate the fuel pump

Will these pass scrute?

Hard to say
What are you running it in
The rules as they now stand say Inertia/Impact switch so a tip over switch may not cut it

It's a car, VW beetle. Switch is an OE (Ford) inertia switch, intended for OE passneger car fuel pump cut-off after crash impact, installed centreline of my car on the chassis, to reduce incidence of 'false alarms' due to yaw, suspension movement etc

If it helps out any other competitors - and I guess that means eveyone who wants to race! - my inertia switch is from a BA Ford Falcon. I used the two pink wires (ignoring the smaller green wire) in series (of course) with the main fuel pump switch
