Craig, Devek sells a mount where you remove the console top between the seats, and screw the base mounting plate down there for events. I have one for my car, and it seems to work just fine. You might check with Devek about the legality of using it for your particular application. It only takes about 5 minutes to mount/dismount.

There's a fire extinguisjer bracket that attaches to the front of the seat rails.

In particular the: BREY-KRAUSE FIRE EXTINGUISHER MOUNT

This is the one I ordered last year and installed in my beastie in about 10 minutes. I later transferred that mount to another car. I'm going to order the one mentioned below in David "Track Beast Meister" Lloyd's original email below:
