[QUOTE="ShootyMCstabby, post: 15942218, member: 187575"] I was having too much fun with my car on fri/sat night. On the last run of the night for me, well after the mishap it was. Running from a dig I miss the shift going into 3rd at 7krpm's, Since at that point I had no chance to catch up, I gave it some rev's put it in 4th and got back to the spot. after congratulating the winner I went to open my hood and before I do I see a black cord hanging down from the FB. I say theres my belt almost kidding like. So I open my hood and see my belt seems smaller, cause it is. it was down to 6 ribs. 1 of the ribs was hanging down from the FB and the other rib was wrapped around the alt pulley. I think the k080780rpm belt was to loose and when I missed the shift the tensioner bucked. Didn't throw the belt completely off but did put in on the caged crank pulley. Which I think is sharp enough 2 cut 2 ribs off. I picked up the cheaper gates belt in 776 and put it on. I had to clean all the pulleys(belt rubber) then checked all the bearings on the pulleys/tensioner/alt pulley. Everything seems good, took it out yesterday. Just another 100$ lesson. [/QUOTE]
