If it was the belt seems like it would act funny all the time. Kart runs and cranks great.
Thanks
A worn belt can effect top speed, all while acting pretty much normal otherwise.

It will.
When you get around to checking the belt and clutch, put the buggy on jack stands and rev it up. See if both pulleys open and close properly, and see if the belt is going all the way up on the front pulley. There should be an obvious wear pattern on the clutch from the belt. Make sure it's the right belt too. Too long or too short can cause issues.
