: Do like some teams and have a reliable gear switching mechanism. Then you get the best of both worlds.

Worked great for us (RAGE 173). We had great speed to get the black balls across the field, and the torque was usefull in pushing our way onto the ramp/bar.

Torque was probably the better of the two to have though. Even in low gear we could out-run teams, but our pushing power was very handy.
