Being in high gear is different from trying to drive at top speed. While we may have been in high gear, I wasn't trying to go very fast a lot of the time, only for the full field dashes. We used low gear when there were defenders near us, we needed to push (partners and opponents), and when we were lining up shots. We had a custom 2 speed gearbox.
