2001 Drive Motors
I'm sure this question has already been asked a few times but i'm kinda curious. I know that last year my team, Team #64 the Gila Monsters used the drill motors with 4x4 direct drive, and we had a heck of a time trying to drag the goals around. I know it's because the way we had our robot geared, we had plenty of speed but no tourque.

So i know teams like #45, who's robots i really liked by the way, and the cheesy poofs had no problem double balancing everytime. I was wondering which motors you used and how you geared them to get that kind of tourque? this question is directed at all teams by the way.
