Great work as always.

looks good ... but you forgot your idler pulley wheel between the front and rear axle. The belt will stretch and slip eventually without a tensioner of some sort (I know this all to well ) I take it your using the Kevlar type (XL series)?

I love that front end design ... I'll have to try that one of these days instead of using Clod parts

Very nice your 4 wheel design has evolved. I would expect the belt drive should make for pretty quiet operation.
