I'm in talks with GATES at the moment to produce a Gates Racing belt. I'll have my answer in 2 weeks.
I'm a firm believer that "strenght" belts are all bullshit. There is no reason a timing belt should have to be stronger than the "standard" varieties. I'm yet to see a standard belt snap within it's recommended life, on standard cars and also hi-po stuff. They are only there to look cool imho.

I'm confused, if you think a standard one is fine why are you in talked with gates to make a race one?

Not that I'm against it, I wouldn't mind getting a good gates belt when the time comes

That's my point exactly lol. I know it is what people want, I know I would be able to sell some and people always like saying they have "racing" parts in the car despite it never seing a race track.

Pfffft race track posers haha.

I can say I have taken my car to the track at least once and I agree, everyone loves race parts.
