Interesting experiment. Is the stress test going to determine the ultimate tensile strength of the belt - just before it fails by snapping? That may or may not provide some useful guidance on how ageing affects the UTS; however, I expect that these belts operate well below their UTS. Harley Davidson's use gilmer belts that are not that much different in size than the NSX timing belt. They operate at much lower RPMs; but, much higher tensions and the more common mode of failure is not tensile failure; but, tooth damage. Gates offers some interesting observations on what they call premature belt failures, most of which are not outright 'snapping' of the belt.

On a Harley, loss of a teeth is typically non catastrophic. On an NSX, its catastrophic if the lost teeth result in the belt hopping teeth leading to a valve bending episode. Years ago I had a neighbor who had a Fiat 128 that had a timing belt failure; but, it was caused by the belt slipping / hopping, not outright separation of the belt.
The Gates website does site tension and misalignment as the causes of tooth failure. Perhaps the most important preventative factor in doing the timing belt change is that most people change out the tensioner at the same time. I can see that a tensioner problem or tensioner bearing failure could lead to belt failure pretty quickly. In terms of premature complete breaking failures Gates sites careless handling of the belt during installation and foreign objects getting in between the teeth and the cogs. Along with the oil contamination issue, good cause for keeping those timing belt covers in good condition. I use to have a Volvo with a B230 turbo motor. It was trendy for owners of the B2xx engines to dress them up with an anodized adjustable timing gear and then remove the plastic timing cover to show it off. I figured that was a recipe for failure.
