Using FCP, How do I make a 25fps film into 24fps without reencoding?

I'm entering HeroFest and the entries have to be 24p. I'm in PAL land and shooting 25p. I don't want to drop my project into a 24p line and render as, as I understand it, it will basically reencode the movie, interpolating where necessary. I was thinking that there must be a way to take the film when finished, drop it into a 24p timeline, but somehow fool FCP that the movie file is actually 24p, and so it will just play a little slower, which won't be noticable.

Anyone done this and can tell me how? Also, I'll need to tweak the audio also because that will be pitched down too much.

Cheers
Aaron
