Both 2011 & 2013 are games that come to mind where having a fast drive train came in handy, especially if your strategy involved driving the length of the field. Take a look at the Einstein matches from this past year and you'll see robots screaming across the field. Shaving seconds off your cycle time and fitting in an additional cycle could win you a match in 2013.
