It is totally possible... that is if you gear the drive train right. I mean, if you gear it right, you can pull any weight you want up that bridge. The problem is, how fast it takes you.

Given the power from the two drill motors, they can be geared efficient enough to achieve such task with a decend speed.

You just want to make sure you have enough traction to do it. Watch out when you are grabbing the goals, and make sure your wheels are actually touching the ground. And you probably want to build up some momentum before you go up the bridge.
