Hi Michael,

I'm using tape now, but the tape holes in the chassis line up in the the middle of the batteries, this is where the power leads come out.

So i can't seem to get a good solid fix.

Do HB make some sort of battery clamp?
I've checked the option and spares list but couldn't find anything.

Another question as well please.
As i bought my chassis secondhand some parts are extra and others are missing.
The front to rear belt tensioner is missing, i've driven the car for 20 mins and there is no sign of belt slippage yet, but should i order a belt tensioner for when the belt gets a little older and stretched?






Cheers
Mark
