I guess your belt has survived due to turbo lag? Cus I made 126 in phoenix in March and broke 3 belts in 6 weeks but im all motor. Just curious.

Yes that is the factory belt still. The Turbo is more on the large side for the motor. so it takes it a while to spool up. I didn't build it for the drag strip we do more highway pulls around here. Plus i like busting crotch rockets ***** everynow and then lol

Mine's not much of a hot rod but I'm racing it this Saturday (8/20) at Harley Night at the Costa Mesa Speedway Races. You guys should come out and run with me! I'll take my burger medium rare.
