Molly,
I am guessing your plan is to use the CIM motor as the steering. Although this is a great motor for driving, the Globe motor may be better suited for you needs. It already contains a gear box that converts this little motor into a very powerful but slow system that lends itself well to the kinds of control systems mentioned above.
