It sounds like the two middle belt pulleys are not in line, check to see if you have both pulley shafts spaced and installed correctly.

[cryer-evo]

Lots of racers including me have had a look and none of us are new to this sport and I have raced and had a lot of belt drive cars never had this befor . Belt was put on the way the manual says to do it

[MikePimlott]

Sounds like you've put it on backwards, they're a reet bugger for that

[cryer-evo]

Haw could I of put it on backwords are they directional ??

[Andrew Twigger]

Sounds like the pulleys are out of alignment as said above. A picture would help.

too many ass holes on this site (or is that the world in general?)-nothing offensive was said, why cant you just tell him what you found that made the belt behave as he described?
