With the engine being mounted across the chassis and the fuel tank (with battery mounted underneath) being in the centre of the car, the belt drive (RRR) has noticeably less weight shift when cornering hard.
One other "nice" point in the belt drive, is that there seems to be a much wider choice of pipe available.

Depends on the car..
The ZT1 has a engine configuration which allows you to use any pipe that is avaliable that would suite the v one series
As to the balance I have a shaft and belt drive cars and a good car is a good car wheather is is shaft or belt.
I do like the additional acceleration of shaft and the free roll. You can drive the car much more smoothly and consistantly than with a belt drive.
