X2. I've had an Optima yellow top in my car for over five years.It's heavier than I'd like ,but always recharges quickly (no alternator) and it will start the car without assistance after sitting for months at a time.

Optima batteries are the way to go. Yellow tops are the best forracing whether you have an alternator or not. When you charge them they are sensetive to a higher voltage charge, they don't like seeing over a 14.7V. You can put 200 amp. thru won't hurt them at all but high voltage will. Battery tender 5amp is all you need. If you need to charge quicker just watch the charge voltage. I work for the company that owns Optima.
