Or low-load uses, like 330's ramps in 2007. (Geared down heavily, they had enough power to put them down or pull them up.)

FP transmissions are good for winches and arms without too much gearing down.

Window Motors- We attempted to use those for our lift this year, but the lift kept ruining the motors.

hehe. Funny story about those window motors. Apparently Vandoor Motors literally mean Van-Door motors.

Hah! I always figured there was a guy named vandoor that invented them or something....

The RS385's are useful for rollers. A few teams used them.
