Default Anyone figure out a Air Bag swtich?

We had a fellow EFA member blow his airbags on a volient launch a few months back...

Has anyone looked into a "override" switch for the Air bags? I'd hate to pull some crazy 60ft and a airbag go off. On the other hand I want them there while I'm the street.

pull a fuse, and disconnect a wire under each side of the dash. Took all of 15 minutes. Helms manual comes in handy for it.
