I’m getting a new, smaller belt soon, just looking for something real quick to do before/at the track tomorrow. Hairspray worked for a bit, it should be at 15psi and hairspray gets it up to 12psi or so, with nothing on the belt it’s 10-11psi.

i thought that was for stuff more along the lines of squeaking, not slipping.

yeah, tdilogik was just telling me to use headliner/fabric glue, i’ll pick some up tomorrow before the track

if it can hold 12lbs or more the whole night, i’ll be reasonably happy. i just need to figure out exactly what length belt to order then i’ll be back on 15psi + a chip :excited

(i love how i’m getting pumped to have a mid 14 second car :facepalm :lmao)

great plan :rofl

the belt is an ENORMOUS PITA to get to, you either have to have the hands of a 4 year old boy to get in there or yank the motor
