It looks like the cim 12:1 gearbox and a fisherprice motor. But how were you able to connect both of them?

Looks like an FP through a Banebots P60 on each side. If my deciphering fuzzy number skills are good it's 20:1.

The Banebots P60 is designed to work with a motor with the same package as the FP. Some work must be done to change the FP pinion, but that is the only modification necessary to make the combo work if I remember correctly.

I'm sure somebody from 1583 will be around to chime in with the details.
