Front belt normally 2 positions tighter than centre.
Rear belt 2 positions looser than centre.
But it does vary with belt age.
Diff oil depends on the amount of grip. On the black ETS carpet at club level (so medium grip) I run 3k. Higher grip, run thicker oil.

Does anyone order xRay parts from RcMart? Just wondering if the parts are authentic xray and if shipping times are decent since they are in HK. Prices look good but didn't want to end up with knock off stuff or something.

RCMart sells authentic Xray parts, as well as knockoff brands. Haven't ordered from them in a while but I always did get parts in a timely manner.
#889
But the parts listed as xray parts are actually xray parts? By knock offs, I meant like they aren't selling no-name parts listed as xray parts?

"knock-off" would infer they are labelled, marketed and give the appearance to fool the consumer into thinking they are the proprietary item.
that's definitely not the case. Aftermarket parts like Arrowmax, Arena et all are alternative options - not knock offs.

I think the term you mean - and should use - is aftermarket parts.

Hi All!
I have been running 17.5 on asphalt this summer. Upon post race inspection today, I noticed one of the belt teeth on the front belt was half gone. Big deal or no? (White belts)
Also, found a cut on the rear belt...topside, down to the belting strands...so put a touch of CA in there .
What is the general consensus about when to replace belts...when they just completely fail and fall off the car?
Thanks in advance!

The white belts last longer for the majority of people per Hagberg and Wahl, as well as in my past experience.
