Trying to see if our experience was unique or if others have seen that the VP belts have a shorter lifetime than those of other suppliers or if there was something different between the runs.

* And anyone who is worried, VP belts are probably fine for anyone who does a sane season. 125's was NOT sane.
We had frequent 9mm belt snaps in our drivetrain, and heard similar things from other CA teams.
