Which explains why it was running faster than a CIM after going through the CIM-U-LATOR... I pulled the specs from the BaneBots website, but didn't see the 12V free speed listed.
The ratios, however, still stand--removing the CIMple box from the equation will have a significant positive effect on the speed, and a corresponding drop in torque.
