Re: pic: Concept 6W Drive Train

In recenty memory, there have been:
2010: Giant bumps made moving fast only possible in the individual sections
2011: Open space for driving. Very fast driving was useful.
2012: Open space for driving, except when passing over the low barrier.
2013: Open space barring the pyramids.
2014: Totally open space. 1678 was geared for 22fps according to their website.
If you feel that the cost/complexity is beyond the team's scope, sigle speed is more than fine. But when running 6 cims, be prepared to add in some kind of anti-breaker tripping code anyway just in case.
