The simple thing would be to do the short delay in the
software. Identical relays usually 'make' faster than
they 'break' due to energy stored in the magnetic circuit.
It's hard to do this without active components. If you
use a typical small 4-pole double-throw relay, you can
guarantee no cross-connection by using one normally-
closed contact in each relay in series with the coil of
the OTHER relay. So a relay MUST be off for the other relay
to be able to be turned on.
Again, what kind of motors are you using?
