Expect some braking effect on your driveline to an extent due to the tension that exists in the system. I'm hoping my tests with the brushless setup show me that it can run well just like they did in my Street Weapon. Those freed up after several runs and were virtually bulletproof. I only put in new belts when I had the thing apart for diff service which was 1 time per season (3 months)... just so I wouldn't have to do it at the track.
How much longer is the next belt that you can get from your supplier? Maybe a longer belt would work better with the HD/Black Belt arm and Pulley?
