Shifting is a matter of dual function. If you want a powerful robot, there absolutely no reason to switch gears, it is the same if you want a fast robot. But since you can't have both at the same time, if you want both you have to be able to switch. You don't need a tranny to have a powerful robot, just thought I would make that clear. Shifting is only necessary if you want to be fast then powerful or vice versa.
