Rear Brake On A Track Frame?

Does anyone know of any rear brakes that are made to be mounted onto track frames that lack the necessary hole. Much appreciated!

Skid tires? lol, front brake and you'll be safe, though i think you can check out a lbs to see if they have a seat stay brake braket.

I forgot to mention that this is for when/if I decide to use the non-fixed side

Word to the wise, sometimes you can't skid/ back pressure stop in time and you end up getting a face full of car and pavement....

I have a back brake. It came with my Langster actually. While I dont use it very often I do use the horns hand position every time I get on my bike.
