Is Anyone Successfully Shooting with a Belt?

Theory says driving a frisbee pinched between a straight belt and a straight wall should work exactly the same as pinched between a wheel and a curved wall. As long as the shear forces, speeds, and contact times are the same, it should work the same.

We all have seen dozens of curved shooters, and straight wheeled shooters (one and two wheel varieties). But I have not seen anyone claim success with belt shooters, specifically straight belt shooters. Has anyone out there done it?

If not, any theories as to why not?
