Default RallyX Questions...A4 related

I am going to start racing my A4 in the Winter RallyX series here in Spokane. I am wondering what I need to do to tie my battery down? The rules say it cant move at all but I am not sure where I will hook anything up to tie it down to. Any ideas? Any helpful hints on stuff I should do? I will be removing my spare tire, subs, and anything else I can to keep my car light.

u kno how like the civic and some other cars have the bar across the top? u can do the same thing. just drill a couple of holes.
also take out ur rear seats, pop out ur radio, wear a jacket full of helium? lol make sure u get a good underbelly pan and tires.

Ok, Sounds good. I will do that when I am installing my FMIC this weekend.

Anyone have any good advice for me being this is my first time ever doing this? I am a good driver but I have never done this before.

I think ive read on the forum some where that if you take off your sway bars you can get a little sideways.
