Hey guys, very interesting thing happened today. We decided to put it up on a jacks and ran it in the garage while looking at the pulleys. Oddly enough everything seemed to be working fine. Only thing we saw was that the belt had been shaved off a bit on the left side (facing the outer edges of the pulleys), and there were bits of it we pulled off.
I took it out for a run and it was slipping (probably because it stretched, maybe not), but the longer I ran it the better it IMPROVED. It's not slipping now. I think I know what the problem was. I was doing 180s in the snow, and when I was still going backwards I was gunning it. I think that was chewing up the belt. Note to self: never do that again!
