How would just having 2 more motors make shifting gears not required? If you think about it then people could have 2 drills and an atwood per side on their drive. Now your saying that drive locked into 300rpm is just as strong as the same drive with a shifter capable of 300 or 100rpm? As was said...the main reason some teams make a shifter is to give them that edge over other teams who are locked into 1 speed. Not to mention shifing to a lower ratio reduces the current draw and lets you push against other robots without worry (most the time)
