Of course I would want it to be able to play D but that is a thought after I fulfill my offense requests.
There are only 5 ratio options and one spread option for the 2CIM ball shifters and as I said 5.5 low and 12.6 high is the fastest we can go with 4 CIMs. I would like to go faster in low gear but we currently can't. Hopefully next season we can upgrade to the 3CIM ball shifters so we can have far more ratio and spread options.
