Hehehe kids these days. If you hold the car flat to the floor and set the slipper so it struggles to slip then its set. (why dont you ask Craig Harris how he does it, as he showed me back in 1988. If you jump and land with full throttle then so be it but I tend to let off when it hits the deck and use a thing called throttle control to drive the car onwards.
I have not had any belts go yet and would hope that these last as long as the well built Kyosho cars (2 belts in 10 years is really good). If it does then bang on. Oh by the way, Craig Harris can pretty much verify the belt wear on my lazers and the amount I raced every week, as he was at most of them.

That implies you want the slipper slipping as little as possible, when in reality it wants to be slipping 3-5 feet on hard acceleration so that when you land from jumps, hit bumps, get on the power hard the slipper takes some of the abuse, not the drivetrain, maybe that is why you are experiencing poor diff/pulley/belt life.
Once again, the common factor in all your problems is you, maybe you are doing something wrong
PS, B-Mag is AWESOME  , Welshy is not as awesome
