    KYE... My friend... Being a channel fallower since you began, because I believe you can take these championships. Kye my friend elliminate all those blower belt issues you have. Get that blower, or as you guys callem super chargers down as low into the intake valley as you can. get a way diffrent intake made so you can get that dam blower down as low as possible and make the belt length as short as you can. I am 66 now. In 1977 I ran a 69 chevelle with a old cast 426 dodge hemi in it with a blower on nitrous methain. I litterly built my own intake for the blower myself. i so wish i could remember the length of my belt but i ran that motor combination 4 years and never ever one time did i change the belt. those long belts have way to much flex snap in them and they cannot take that hard recoil flex to snap back yight under varied rpm. hope i can describe it right so you under stand. my set up was crank drive, a idler to tighten and blower drive and i wanna say it was like 7 or 8 inches between the two drive pullies. I watch all of you guys struggle with blower belts i swear thats your biggest trouble, also make sure them pullies are dead on straight square to each other. just bolting on parts said to be right could be out of square even as small as 1/16 of a inch and it will destroy belts. huggs and good luck my friend i will be watching every video and race.

    Why do you guys not put the car on the trans brake in the pit to see if it's going to break the belt or not? I know the belts only have a limited number of runs before they are worn out or break. But I'd think it would be worth checking before you line up against someone for 30k$

    Is it possible your belt is flexing under load And touching the back side of the belt inside that housing causing it to stop that portion of the belt like a break For a split Second in the rest of the belt to rip off And Continue cause it's still being pulled by the lower pullygear on the crank For the belt.

      Adam took a step back so he won't be at every race. He's spending time with his family. He will probably be at 4 or 5 races.
      I may not be 100% correct but I'd say at least 90% of what I stated is factual I just may be off on number of races he may be at and the exact reason he's not there. I can't remember if it's for his kids racing or it's his kids sports but it's definitely for time with his family.
