You can use any timing belt on the robot (including special order I believe) as long as no more than 20 feet of it appear on your robot. You can also buy as much as you like from Small Parts to put on your robot but it has to be included in the Small Parts totals.

Our team ordered 10 ft of timing belt and Small Parts sent us twelve 10" pieces!!!! Are they always this cruel?

I believe the timing belt from Small Parts comes precut and you can't order it by length. Read the catalog very carefully before ordering....
