Just an anecdote -

One winter night my '90 744TI stalled a couple of times. I then figured out that the car stalled when I turned on the high beams!

Its in the FAQ

I cleaned the ground in the left front fender and all was well.

As for grounds, it is a decent idea to add a couple to your car, especially engine to body.

At the Swedish Car day, Lars Anderson transportation Museum near Boston, I looked at a few souped up SAABs - They all huge ignition wires and grounds, stereo wires as well.
