Re: most "epic" motor ever
CIMs are the best permanent magnet DC motors I have ever used - in FIRST, at work, in school, etc. We had been unable to destroy one in 12 years (until this year thanks to an overzealous rookie and some incorrectly sized mounting hardware)!

I like the suggestion for unlimited CIMs and Globes (or a suitably robust similar "small" motor - the RS550s might be up to it).
