Timing Belt Question (SERIOUS)

Dude bud yo,

I'm new to the world of Cars BRO and i was wondering if i should cut my timing belt to get more power.

My Boy Joey cut his power steering and A/C belts so i wanted to cut my timing belt. WHAT U GUYS THINK?

Why not just do it the safe way? Just add stickers and you should be zippin' through the city!

Maximum weight reduction: Just pull out your engine and throw in some Honda Lawn Mower's engine and twin turbo it. You'll get the fastest car on the planet.

the starter doesnt do anything, the crank doesnt move at all, it just spins the cams.

if your cranks not moving you have problems pal

How do you know a valve bent did you do a compression test?

the cams won't move if the crank isn't moving. The starter spins the flywheel, which is bolted to the crankshaft, the timing belt goes around the oil pump gear which is attached to the crankshaft and the timing belt spins the water pump and camshafts/gears.
So if the cams are moving, your crank is moving.
