Anyone experiment with "overdrive"?

[_paralyzed_]

It should also be noted that overdriving in any way (cd or solid center) will wear the gears faster. It is just easier on the driveline if everything rolls together.

The only application where I would consider overgearing would be in mud, where the loss of traction saves the gears, or in rock crawling where the slow speed saves the gears.

(or racing an xxx4 where winning is more important than money)
