Belt Drive Pulleys

Hey,

Team 694 was considering building a drive train over the summer, and using belts as opposed to chain to cut down on weight. I have two questions relating to this. First, is it a bad idea to use the nylon pulleys? Are they too weak or will the teeth wear? Second I was wondering how much belt stretches. I know that chain can stretch quite a bit and was wondering if belt does the same. Any teams have experience with this?

Thanks a lot.
