Van door motors run slower in reverse than in forward, so they have to be mounted to eliminate this effect (at least in tank-style drive). However, they are very powerful, but I still would recommend drill motors for drive. Van door motors are usually more valuable in other robot systems, ie lift/arm/whatever.
