I believe some year before I joined the rules allowed for a larger CIM-style motor, but according to my mentor it didn't get much use and wasn't allowed again. I've seen similar motors on eBay and AliExpress like this one, but I don't really trust them (especially because the specs listed on this model don't come near to the 800W claim).
I remember seeing megaCIMs (doubt that was the name) around the lab before. Mentors always had said they were just a precursor to the standard cim now.
