if you're gonna go with an optima man go with a yellow top.

and yeah it's easy to post and ask, but IMHO it's more fun to look around myself and read up on **** i hear about. i suggest you try it sometime! you can sometimes find stuff you never knew existed and find a better "something" to suit your needs or wallet.
Peace,
M

There was an interesting thread on this a short time back, somebody said that the yellow top is deep cycle and isn't the greatest for spark speed, it's more for drain from the stereo. If this has any truth to it, the red top is the way to go.

yeah the yellow top is a deep cycle and so is not at all good for use in a car unless you plan on nearly draining your battery periodically and letting it slow charge back up. But the red top performs just like a normal auto battery but better! I been using my red top for 4 years now and it works great.
