Progressively higher clutch engagement rpm as hours increase

Great suggestion!. I looked at the drive clutch picture in the online parts manual for the Magnum 500 and I believe that you would be referring to parts reference #9 which would be the spacers varying in width from .020 to .050". I really think that you are on to something here. A narrower "spacing" would require less RPM for the belt to grab.
The only downside that I can see is the experimentation level required to get it as close as possible to a creep mode without engaging and without affecting the ability to shift gears. (which becomes difficult with a dragging belt)

my brand new 00 explorer is doing the same thing, the dealer thinks i'm crazy! If I am on a hill with my wife on back it seems like i really have to gas it in order fot it to get going. My 300 is not like that at all. In fact my 300 takes off better on a hill with the two of us than my 400 does, I'm going to try the suggestions you guys said, THANKS! Bosty

NEVER WASH YOUR CLUTCHES WITH SOAPY WATER!!!!!! Use a non-residual brake or electronic cleaner. Use compressed air to blow out the belt dust (don't snort the air/dust) Clutches run dry!!!! Small amounts of anti-sieze can be applied to the mounting splines, and the secondary splines...small amounts. I've been running the HPD Kevlar belt (still the same belt) all summer on a HPD race-mod. Just got back from a hard weekend of dune climbing and sand drag-racing at Silver Lake.....still running the same belt. If you want to end your belt woes.....BUY THIS THING!!!!
