try to follow the cable as far as you can you may find it somewhere. i think that there should only be one cable going back there. so just try to follow it till you find something. i have never done it. i could be conected to the pedal or somewhere towards the fron it does not have to be in the back. (ussually they are towards the back)

the tensioner is on the pedal. its on the right hand side of the pedal. there is a threaded bold and there is a little black sleeve that you have to pull off and it exposes a nut. turn the nut im thinking to the right. and it should tighten it.

the trays are there to help you "drift" by not allowing the rear tires to grip there for when you have momentem in a direction the rear will go and the front will not . just a tray under both rear tires and try to drive. dont forget about the e-brake.
