we can indeed go faster, or have more power. This was just a starting point. we can even adjust these factors between matches if we wanted to depending on the opposing alliance by changing the sprocket sizes! talk about versatility!

That's great! Yeah, go down to 3" if you can, as you are just driving on a flat right now.
Gears are more efficient than chain, but they are less versatile.
