Re: Drivetrain First Thoughts?

Actually, in this game EVERYTHING matters. I say that because this is one of those games where for the most part everyone will be able to do everything. What matters is being able to do it better. With this in mind, better means you need to place more tubes than others (aka. you need to be faster.) In the end the teams that excel will be those that took the extra time to shave off seconds from their tube handling process (from the ground/ feeder to peg). The drivetrain is also a huge part of this. If your drivetrain is unreliable you won't be able to excel.
