Ok we at 88 used both sets of shifting. At the begining of the match we used drills to run out and grab a goal. The drill motors could be run on high or low. Once we grabbed a goal we would drop a wheel run on chippy's down and that would be used for tug of war. We decided to use this system because we knew that you need speed and at the same time you need power. So being able to do both was quite an advantage this year. I can't tell you how many times we stole goals from opponents or just shovved an opponent to where we wanted them. Last year this was the key and depending upon January 5 we will see if it is needed again.
