Default Shorter belt faster top speed!!

Hi everybody I bought an 03 stock cart for my son at christmas ,brought it home drove around the neighbor hood. Adjusted the gov and throttle cable and was hitting 18 mph gps and just bumping the rev limiter. Parked it in the shed and all this stinkn snow hit. So we did Mikes muffler mod ordered the 1" shorter belt and waited for the snow to melt.Well the snow melted and the yard dried out enough for us to try it out. I wanted to try thr stock belt with the muffler mod to see if it would change top speed at all. Still same top speed 18 mph but sounds alot cooler THAnKS MIKE! so we slipped the shorter belt on and it made a big difference on take off power and now goes 20mph and not hitting rev limiter Anyway I just wanted to thank everyone on here for all the info it makes it alot more fun than the old trial and error.!!
