Tape is a pain in the butt. I like the rubber band on my CRC but I would prefer a CF brace that was screwed down. I saw one on a car I was racing against and I think that's the ticket.

I think velcro would be too thick if you wrapped it around the chassis... scrape the ground. [/B][/QUOTE]

Being that the batteries weigh as much as they do, a carbon brace spanning the cells is not the best idea in the world. The best "non-tape" hold down system I've seen so far is on the T-fource. It's much less likely to tweak the chassis after a big hit, than a brace that's tied to both sides of the chassis.
