Yes, it was a VP belt.
We ran at least 6 other 9mm VP belts/robot that survived an entire season (2 on intake, and 4 on outer drive wheels).
I'm pretty confident that something else happened to the one belt that snapped. We had just replaced the wheels that afternoon. Right after that, they called me and said the belt broke. I think they tried to roll the belt on to the pulley and cut it, instead of assembling it correctly with the belt on the pulley.
