Should that situation arise, it would be dealt with. I don't see the purpose in delving into "what if" scenarios, as they don't reflect the current state of reality.

It does reflect the current state of reality. Are these COTS components? Are they parts fabricated by a sponsor as a donation? If so were they made in the 6 weeks? Was the amount the team paid just the material costs, not an unfairly low price on machine time?

These are serious issues, you can't just bend the rules and get away with it. If you completely answered the first set of questions, I wouldn't be inquiring further.

Whatever it costs, I'll bid $1000 asap via paypal.

Not for a real FRC entry, but for fun at our shop.

EDIT: I've decided to clear this up to ditch the issue. Here's how it works:
-Teams begin by requesting sponsorship. If Outback accepts, they then buy the material for a drive base.
-Outback donates the machine time to fabricate a drive base.
-Teams buy the belts and pulleys through Outback, a Brecoflex vendor

That being said, PLEASE ask me if there's any questions. Don't assume, I'm here to help!

I'm sure they'll send you pics. We're working on uploading our archive, so I'll send you the link (or put it up in public if the team OK's it) when we have it.

That'd be cool. Where are you going to school? (care to PM me the reply? We can keep the personal convo out of the public thread...)
