To hold down the "fake" batteries?[/QUOTE]

When I went through tech, the official asked about tethers and I showed him that he could see them through the fender well and he was good with that. Next he looked at the battery and asked if it was real. I thought he was kidding so I told him that the battery was real, but the engine was fake. I said the real engine was in the trunk. He kind of laughed and said that despite the fact that it was all over the internet, they found one in an all star car. Didn't ask who and I am sure he would not say either.
