I might have a reason..
When I was young pup I would take my fathers 71 Pontiac down the road at 50
MPH and shut the ignition off for just a few seconds and then turn it back
on....
Made a REAL nice bang. Did it till I left it off too long and blew the
muffler off...
Had to pay for the replacement...

You mean they don't have an ignition switch??  Or isn't that precisely
what it does if you turn it off while the car is moving??
