2815 did the same thing this year for their drivetrain. Not so much for weight savings as the fact that all four CIMs were tied up in our conveyor and shooter drum system. No issues all season (nor in its several off-season demos) driving on a slick floor, though we did keep cans of compressed air in the pits. I don't think we'd do it like this in a carpet game, but it worked great for the task at hand.
