Drivetrain help

I need some help...wondering if the following will work.

Attach a drill motor to each of the rear wheels.
Attach a chippewa motor to each of the front wheels.

Gear the chippewa motor down to the same free speed as the drill motor in low (300 rpm).

We would leave the drill motor in low when we want torque and shift it to high when we want speed. If we ran all 4 motors at full speed (with the drill motors in high (free speed of 1,000 rpm)), would the wheels attached to the chippewa motors drag or roll freely? Is there anything we could do to help this situation?

Please reply if you can help,
Matt Cuttitta
