Default Re: G16 low speed - limit secondary opening idea?

Yes I am kinda backwards on this.

I plan to have the heaviest primary spring I can get to keep the rpm up and the belt low in the primary.
I was thinking a fresh wide & tight belt would keep me in the power range.

From the other two carts I have already done and used, it seems any movement from the secondary increases speed more than we are wanting.
Unfortunately we have to lift the carts and increase the tire size to clear the rocks, the larger tires change the ratio in the wrong direction for us.

Maybe limiting the primary is the way to go which might require me to fab up some custom ramps with stops in them. If so now I am wondering if the power of the engine could cause the primary to fail?

It could said we are trying to make more of an off road rock crawler than anything else.
