Bat Cap?
I'm curious to know if anyone here has used a Bat Cap in their race cars?
They only weigh 14 LBS and supposedly produce 600+CCA
There are even smaller models out there that weigh in at less than 10LBS
I've seen them in a couple of SCCA Solo II cars and I'm very curious about the theory they work on

I Installed a similar battery made by someone else in a Mitsubishi Evo. I call it the kiddy car battery. It will start the car, if it's fully charged, and not too hot, and has been running recently. The guy who owns, and purchased it, even gave up on it. After the mods to get it to fit and stay in the battery tray, they provided a holdown with adapters, there was almost no weight savings. Well i guess you have the benifit of push starting the car! Removing the starter would save weight! To be serious, I was not impressed, and would find a cheaper and easier way to shed weight. FRANK
