I have a wind turbine going into a inverter outputting to a battery. Then I have another a Solar panel going into a inverter and outputting to the same battery of the wind turbine. Is tis possible?

As far as the battery is concerned it'll be like trying to charge it by two different chargers simultaneously, which won't get it charged twice as fast. You'd probably be better off having both panel and turbine feeding into the same inverter instead. You might have to install a back-current block to keep the turbine from feeding into the panel and the other way around. Have a look at what the yachting industry are doing, they have a lot of nice stuff for these kinds of things.

Why might a car with a new battery drain down after 2 days?

This can have many causes. A faulty battery. Some equipment constantly being on in the car will drain it. (Can be a stereosystem that is wrongly connected to power.) Could be some faulty wires from the battery to the rear (or other places). If wires are lying in some water with bad insulation, then this can be a cause. If water and faulty insulation on cables is the problem then this need to be fixed as fast as possible as it will eventually destroy the area where the current flows. It might even cause heat and possibly fire. Would not want that.
