There's a spot on the TC5 setup sheets for hex spacing that looks like it's for people to shim the wheel away from the axle hexes. How are you supposed to achieve this? Won't this reduce the contact area between the wheels and the hexes? It seems like this would be a good way to increase track without pulling the CVAs farther out of the outdrives.

Rcently had a few DNFs due to the thumbscrews coming off the grub screws on the battery posts and/or the grub screw pulling completely out of the battery post. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there an alternate solution?
I'm thinking of alternating 2 packs for safety in this Texas heat and the battery tape solution isn't looking that appealing to me.

Also +1 on the use of tape to hold your batteries in. I have thin aluminum bars Shoe-Goed to the bottom of my lipos to align with the chassis cut-outs. Using that plus tape, I've never had a battery move.
