I went over road tracks last year the car shut off and wouldn't start. I changed the timing belt car still won't start. What do you think it is? I'm lost.

This sounds like the crankshaft angle sensor or the fuel pump has gone out. when you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? These guides should help us fix it:
