Drill Motors Removed? Illegal this year?

I am a first time rule reader this year so please bare with me..

I have seen that FIRST elimated (removed) the drill motors from the kit this year, so if there was a transmission design that used a drill motor, it can not be used this year correct?

quoted from kitofparts.pdf:
"Removed 2 Bosch drill motors & transmissions and replaced them with 2 CIM motors with FIRST transmissions."

It doesn't look like any motors the size of drill motors are included in the kit of parts. (I don't know the names of the motors below and what they look like)

Motor, Globe, w/drive assy
12 Vdc
409A587
2

Motor, CIM
Keyed output shaft
FR801-001
4

Motor, Nippon-Denso, Window , RH
1

Motor, Sliding Door
Taigene
2

Motor, Window, Jideco
RH or LH provided
1

Motor, Fisher-Price, w/21T #7 Gearbox
12 Vdc,, stall torque 532.19 (mNm)
2

I assume that you must only use these motors when you build your robot?
