My opinion

Nitro-
In my experience, I have had more acceleration in belt than shaft, shaft you dont really need to change it that often but belt you have to after alot of runs

Electric-
In my experience, I have had more acceleration in shaft than belt, the belt overtime skips during acceleration and i hate the sound of the skipping.
