Ah, that makes more sense.

Though I'm definitely sold on flat belting after playing around with it the last few seasons. Just a bit of electrical tape around your roller to make a crown and the belts will self-center.

Just want to point out that while the belts do self-track to the center of the crown, it's definitely not going to stay there under any sort of side load. Be prepared to be realigning belts between matches.
