Question Heat Sinks

I broke my little latch that the heat sink clips onto. I did it on two different cars...anyone else do this? Is there a fix?

buy a hotwheels kit racer and use the heatsink that it comes with. You also get extras like battery, motor, etc.

Yeah it is a shame Tomy does not make the heatsinks screw in like the zipzap ones. Here is my Method Take fishing string or any kind of durible wire then take out all the gears and the motor then simply tie the wire on. It is a real pain thou if you have more than one motor! but it works. pliers are helpful for grabing the small wire and twisting it to make it tighter.
