As for the 3 motor drive teams have done it from time to time. If I was going to do that this year I would most likely use 2 small cims and the AM FP planetary.

here is an example from team 217




217 the ThunderChickens, right? big green thing? if this is there setup from last year, now I know why I couldn't push them.


alright is that gearbox a custom job or can we buy it?
How much more power does that produce? (torque & speed mainly)
