I use welding cable in my Elec-Trak which is really flexible and nice to
work with - 4 AWG I think. I was thinking of the same for this, but I
will be running higher amps - I'm also using an Alltrax 400A controller.
2 AWG makes sense. Of course bigger is always better, but at some point
it gets in the way and too expensive.

It's the amount of amps that you will draw that is important when
choosing your wire. I've been happy with 2 guage on my motorcycle.
That is with an Alltrax 400 amp controller. Be sure that you get a
nice flexible wire with lots of strands. It will make everything much
easier.
