the belts seem a little too loose so my questions are:

to tighten the belts are the bulkhead covers removed or just loosened? and are the bulkhead covers the only item i will have to mess with in order to tighten the belts? or is there something else i have to removed or loosen to gain access to the bearing holder?

approximately how much play should i have in each belt? i was at hobbytown earlier today and another brand car with similar setup had much tighter belts than i have currently.

thanks for helping the noob...
