the race track rules on most tracks specify the cut-off switch MUST be located close to the battery, on the positive lead .because in an accident, its very likely that the insulation on the positive battery will be damaged causing a major fire hazard if it shorts to the car body , cut or short out the negative leads and either nothing works or theres no dangerous effects, that's not true in all cases with a short to ground on a positive batter lead, thats why most tracks say you need to place the switch on the rear near the battery
