Kill switch for an alternator

This weekend I was not allowed to race because I did not have a kill switch for my battery. I was not aware that I needed one for a relocated battery. I got the switch for the battery but I was wondering what would be a good switch for the alternator.

They kill your battery since that is what is providing power to your electrical system. Also might be arcing problems in an accident (flames and gas). Killing your alternator might be a neat anti-theft device though

problem is with the car running killing the battery won't shut it off. instead of disconnecting the damn thing before each run I would like to just switch it off.
