After a couple of runs at the track I would sometimes get a little belt slip. The boys at RMCR told me to try putting some VHT on the belt. With a small brush I applied it with someone tapping the engine around. It stays very gummy. It works like a charm for me. I'd thought I'd post it here because I have not seen it mentioned before.

Wow. Sounds like a great idea....as long as it don't harm the belt over time.

Great Idea. I bet it make's a mess on the underside of the hoos though. As long as you don't cake it on it would be alright ,I guess! Good Idea though.

It really doesn't make a mess like you might think. It's so tacky that it mostly stays with the belt.

Problem is it works only a short short time, after a while a lot of dust and whatever it picks up sticks to the belt. I've used it in the past and it works enough to verify the slip and make a couple good passes.

It has been posted here alot, but is usualy used to diagnose a belt slip problem. I dont think anyone uses it regurarly.

It's not a cure all. I go to the track 4-5 times a year and run 3-4 times each time. I didn't want to switch to a cog drive or get into major re-engineering. It can help if you have minimal slip and don't race all that much.
