"Automatic Transmission"

[Joel J]

I don't know much of anything about anything when it comes to gearboxes, but I do know that when I was on RAGE last year we looked into constructing a "belt transmission" because it would allow us to achieve a _really_ high speed in a short period of time, with a near seemless journey there. So, my question.. shouldn't a belt transmission be geared towards robots that need to be really fast more than to robots needing to be "strong?" Throw something at me here, so I know what to think.
