Default Will it pass tech?

Guys I'm wondering if anyone knows if the way I mounted my battery will get pass tech? Its an Odyssey PC680. I didn't feel like spending the $$ to move the battery to the rear of the car so I went with this.

It depends on what track you run at. A lot of IHRA and outlaw tracks could care less about the way its mounted. But if your competing at a NHRA sanctioned track, you may run into issues.

They may want to see a strap across the top, well the side so there is no way it could slide out Each tech guy is different, and seems more like a judge on a bad day. If the last guy gave him grief he will take it out on you, or if he was called out on something on his car in the past its past onto you as well!
