I have a couple of issue with my car.
1. Cells - I use seperate type cells, i've fitted the two end posts and the "Tamiya" battery bar but the cells seem to move a lot side to side within the slots. Would some foam tape to the bottom of the battery bar help or should I stick something to the inside of the lower deck to prevent them from moving? I tried using the plastic part that fits to the outside edge of the lower deck and the cells fit really well, but they rub on the cups on the prop. shaft.
2. Spur Gear - I'm just using the standard tamiya one, it moves a few mm forward and back - is this normal?
Thanks

1. The way in which the cells are supposed to be mounted if side x side, is by tape through the holes in the chassis on either side of the slots. If you saw the fully hopped up chassis that Tamiya displayed at the Evo IVs launch, then you would see how that was done.
2. I think that this is normal. I also have a little bit of movement but that shouldn't affect performance as it is like 1mm and that's it, maximum.
