Here's mine. I believe I bought the battery and the bracket from Summit. The bracket attaches with 4 sheet metal screws. FYI, the white strip is some adhesive foam for sealing doors on houses that I added to try and keep engine heat out of the compartment where the battery, heater, wiper, etc reside.
Of course, in NZ you will want to rotate everything 180 degrees in order for it to work properly
Unless there is no weight restrictions in your racing class , i don't see what advantage an expensive low amperage lightweight battery
would have as compared to the average Interstate 650 CCA intermediate sized battery.
PCA as well as most other 944 sanctioning bodies restrict the minimum weight for a 2.5 car at 2600 lbs with driver and 2750 for the 2.7 engined cars.
I have to add ballast to my car in order to comply with the weight regulations ...
Funny enough just last week , i was looking at an Odyssey battery for my 911 which was "on sale " at one of my local suppliers and the starting price was $315.00 dollars CDN plus tax.

I put together this Odyssey mount to make use of the vehicles stock battery mount.
Started with a hold down from Lindsey Racing.
Not sure why the first two photos are rotated.

Just sayin ...
I don't live in america or canada - we have very different rules here, plus I'm trying to minimise acid sloshing around....
Im Running the Anti-Gravity.. Made my own mount, What I really like about it is the "Restart" Function... YEP Left my ignition on one time and was Totally DEAD... Lifted the Hood, pushed the restart button on the batt and Fired right up.! That's why theres a hole in the middle of the mount..
any breakers over there able to harvest the RHD trunk-battery mount and send it stateside?
Nah the RHD shell was toast, plus had been cut away anyway - the car had a similar setup to what curtisr showed above.
Now I have been given a LHD shell to build up.

Yeah those batts look like an interesting bit of kit.
