Guide holder

I was working on a Ranch Design chassis when I got heavy handed. I broke the guide holder.
What do I do now? Is there a replacement guide holder available.
The chassis is under a Mach V. The kids love the way the motor screams around the track. 14" straights give it a chance to wind out.

if Steve doesn´t have any parts left, 3D print could be a solution for the guide holder. (or scratchbuilding out of PS?)

How many parts has the bracket broken into ?

If possible glue them together with c/a, put the unfragmented bracket on the scanner, print it out, cut it out, glue it onto a sheet of styrene of appropriate thickness, drill, dremel, sand - that' s it.

If it is broken too much, put the center section on a sheet of scaled paper and mark the two screwholes exactly. Then you can design the rest to your own specs.
