A lot of thought go into our machines. The simple answer to why we can do that is 'Brute Force'. But I am sure you do not want to hear that. We pay close attention to detail - the materials we use for gears and the alignment/construction of the drive train. We do all this simply to ensure peak performance or in engineering terms - efficiency. Another thing we do is make the drive train as modular as possible. Therefore, if we do make a mistake, we have a chance to correct ourselves during the season without any major re-designs.
