Does the timing belt have a "break-in" period?

Hi, all.
I had my timing belt service done 2 weeks ago, and was curious to know whether or not I should go easy on the car for XXXXmiles, so that the new parts have a chance to break-in. Is this necessary?
Should I take it easy for a certain amount of miles? Or, can I still launch quickly and shift at high RPM's (on occasion)?
Thanks in advance. -Thomas

I had my timing belt replaced a year ago and about a week prior to an open track event. I only put about 100 miles on the car prior to the track event. Had no problems on track day and the car runs fine. I don't think you have anything to worry about.
