0.9g at 5.500 in third is awesome!

The belt goes into harmonics at extreme rpm as seen on a GOPRO camera.
We disconnected the alternator and it still jumped off or turned upside down.
Converting to a toothed belt or serpentine would be a major deal and require engine removal so I am desperately trying everything else.

No, they are BF Goodrich Rival S 315x30x18 200 TW street tires

Peak horse power is at 7600 and peak torque is 5700. The car went from 67 mph to 91.7 in 2.2 seconds on treaded street tires including a shift to third.
