Oh, the ratings on your motors seem to be shrinking message by message!
240 Oz-In for a PEAK torque is getting pretty small. I think you could
save the day by going to a belt reduction drive, or going to a bigger motor.
You might need to go to a 4:1 belt drive, and then up the power supply
voltage if you run out of voltage at the high speed end.
