40A is about 50% above the specified normal load for a CIM motor, per its data sheet. CIM motors can operate at 40A for quite a while before they will overheat -- much longer than a 2 minute FRC match. Stall current for a CIM is much higher, around 130A.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
