Default 993 Reverse Lockout

I feel kind of lame for asking this, but does anyone know of a quick/simple way to lock out reverse for autocrossing? SCCA stock rules allow for "A device for locking out reverse gear may be used." I'm afraid that with the new smaller site in Topeka there may be first gear corners, and it is way too easy to shift into reverse when you're trailbraking into a corner on the course. And we all know the negative $$$ that will result when the clutch is let out. TIA.

Been there...done that during the 1st Autocross I ever did in my 964. Yes...very negative financial consequences!

FWIW, my wrench said that he knew of nothing that I could install to lock out reverse. Maybe a 993 gear box is different?

I now tremble when I arrive at a site that requires 2nd/1st down shifts.
