Re: Shifting or Non-Shifting
We have used:

* 1-speed drill transmissions in 2000-2003
* A custom 1-speed worm gear transmission in 2004
* AM Gen 1 shifter in 2005
* AM Gen 1 shifter in 2006
* ToughBoxes in 2007 (omni drive)
* ToughBoxes in 2008 (omni drive)
* ToughBoxes in 2009 (regolith)
* AM Gen 1 shifter in 2010, but modified back into a 1-speed for weight/usefulness reasons (we split the difference between high and low and that was more than fine for the primarily short dashes around the field, and we were still traction-limited in brief pushing contests)
