Anyone got any fixes for stopping the batteries coming out when using side by side cells...

Friday I failed 2 heats due to the cells coming out, and the second time the weight of the cells flying out wrenched my Novak GTX apart...

I have chamfered the battery slots a lot so they sit deeper, but still not happy with the battery clamp bar... Definately a huge weak spot...

just catching up with the recent posts, I've fixed mine by using two shock ends (the eyelets) and screwing them to the chass where the side brace for stick packs used to be. I'll post pictures a tad later when I get back out to work.
