I have some of the extra strong belts that the team ran before the car was discontinued.

Once fitted you do need to do a little dremmeling to the chassis around the diffs as the belts are a little thicker than the normal ones.

Drop me a PM if you are interested.

Indeed, Craig's belts are strong rubber ones the Team was working with in '09. The standard Kit belt was Losi A3209. The Losi belt is specially made to run at high speed and be bent over backward. The rubber belts had a better fit on the pulley teeth.

We have a few 3209s left; if you want some from us, please E-mail me. D.M.S. may have them too.

We do indeed have them in stock as well as the wider and longer A3213 ones used from the XXX4 too which were most popular towards the end

I have just typed "A3209" and "A3213" into our shop website and they both come straight up at the top of the search

I was a big fan of the xxx4 belt. I used to use the larger idler pulley wheel (for more wrap) and file the tensioner slots back so you could take up the extra slack. I was convinced this had less skip than the stock XXXS belt.
