Jimmy,
Up until recently I was still running the Lazer, and at stupid gear ratios as always in my case (Craig Harris can vouch for that), and yet still havent broken more than 2 belts in 18 years. I am going to keep the same belts in and pulleys and if they slip I will tighten, but maybe thats how Tamiya are going to make some more money, being cheap on the running gear.Then again maybe the gear cover will stop this.
Have you tried the same size 35t pulleys on yours yet?

The Tamiya belts are great - just don't run them too tight or loose. I've only broken one belt and that was from running it too tight.
