My team drove our robot with the CIM motors and a custom 2-speed gearbox the last two years. It worked out pretty well. The main advantage they have over the drills, that I've seen, is that you can get into a pushing match, and the CIM's won't overheat nearly as fast as the drills will. That might not be a big concern this year, but it helped us the last 2 years. We never once had a CIM overheat and need to be cooled after a match.
