Yep.

In 2006, 968 ran 2 CIMs and 1 FP in each drive transmission (or was it 1 and 1? I forget.). Anyways, I recall that they got quite a bit of practice in changing FPs out of the trannies due to frying. Something about FPs (and most of the KOP non-CIM motors) not exactly handling stalling very well.

I've used 4x RS775 motors in a drive, but there was almost no pushing involved, and weight was a very definite factor (as in, lower the weight for better points). This was not an FRC robot, BTW.
