Likely to get flamed here, but just thinking out loud 
How often, and in what conditions, did your cars get actually used in that 18 months and 2 years?
I reckon Im using my car more than most on here.
Im practising with my car almost every day at least once a day (sometimes 2 or 3 times!).... and not a nice indoor safe carpet, but outdoors (gravel, tarmac, grass track) and all my races are again outdoors on dirt with some big jumps (its a 1.8th nitro track!!)
Time the car has run without belt changes isnt really the issue, its how much the car has been used (abused).
Im not trying to poke sticks, genuinely want to see if I can protect the belts better and maintain my car better. |

With you boy's on this, had the original cat SX from day it came out and not one problem with belts. Out drives where a different matter though,
but that's been sorted. Miss my SX now, really tempted with the SXIII
