Why, did you add a bunch of weight? I agree with you on the drag issue. I cannot imagine that any belt car could be smoother than a shaft driven one... Maybe I have not experienced a pro level belt car yet. The tamiya 4wd tc that I had setup for speed runs was so smooth you it felt like it did not have diffs in it. It would barely slow down during off power coasting...
