Re: Transmissions

Heres my whole take on the "Turbo Button" issue:
i would have set it up to be locked in high all the time then have a slow mode for Perscis movement to cap or get a tetra from the loading zone. We tried the 4 speed transmission this year but ended up having to lock it into 2nd gear and we did OK with it. I dint know the exact reasons why we chose not to go fully shifting, but i personally didn't see much of a need for a 4 speed tranny on such a small field.
