One thing to definitely keep in mind is that the window motors are intended to move up and down car windows. This means they are designed to be used intermittently, not continuously. They do heat up over time, but using them in our swerve drives with minimal load, they can definitely hold up for a 2 minute match if there is low resistance, friction, etc. The banebots motor is MUCH more powerful. Of course you need to have a gear reduction to harness that power at the correct combination of speed and torque, but if you use a gear box, that will both move faster and provide the same torque needed for your application.
