Your link for the motors doesn't work, but if its drill motors, they're fine for a FW drive, though I would invest in some better batteries.
That speed controller is no good, its for a brushless motor (drill motors are BRUSHED motors). I would recommend a Scorpion XL or a Sabretooth 25A (I'll sort out a link later)

Both of those esc's will drive those motors, but onl yin one direction so they are no use. Your best bet is the speed controllers mentioned above, have a look at the sabertooth dual 10A , been used with the ?10 argos drills in many bots with lots of success. The electronize esc's are a little bit cheaper but in my opinion id steer clear of them, the sabertooth escs are fully solid state (no moving parts),have options for mixing and cutoffs and are very good at shutting themselves down before you can breka them hehe. The scorpion esc's are better still but are quite a bit more than the sabertooth 10a.
