It looks as though you have the belt tensioner lifting the belt up rather than holding it down. Im pretty sure the back (non toothed side) of the belt is adjusted down by the tensioning wheel.
Also just check that steering link from the servo. It looks like its holding the belt down (rubbing).
Hate to see you get this thing of beauty out for a run only to present some problems for you.

I'm aware of it. I was just setting up the electronics. I have to wait for the center TSC drive from Reg, so all of that will be adjusted once I get it.

I would love to meet up, but when I told my wife I wanted to meet up with you on our last visit to which she said you were going to likely rape and kill me since I only met you on the internet

I'll see what I can convince her of this next time

. Anything is possible

Second vote on this.... not that your Yok is democratic.... but you need to hack off those servo ears and move that sucker forward so your linkage lines up.

Wow... now I have to put second thoughts into my visit to Reg's side of town!!

Where is your sense of adventure? Must be why you guys never start any good wars.

Ha ha, might I remind you of the year 1812?? I know we were under British rule but let's be reasonable... Here's a joke... two Canadians walk into a bar... then your white house is on fire!!!!!! That's it.... that's the joke. Still pretty funny.

I will probably end up bringing a broken beer bottle to your gun fight

Ya gotta drink first if there is a fight, right?

In all fairness, I still have 2 holes I can move the linkage out on the servo saver. Once I move that back it should line up a bit better.

Good point!

Americans don't like to talk about 1812!

Any luck on finding low profile saddle lipo's that won't interfere with the body!

I think Reedy makes a couple of packs that might fit. Other than that, I haven't really looked.

Rod, I think those longer white arms would be sweet on this car. I may have to look for a set.

You will need the drive shafts as well, I think?

oh yeah, I could probably find a set. If I could, would you consider letting me use them??? I suppose if I found a set for the rear I would need longer rear drive shafts too? humm

Just saying, the white arms would be awesome with the paint on this car.
