You've got plenty of nearby teams to talk to. I would be very surprised if none of them had an 8-slot cRIO they could let you borrow.

What should I do? Should i buy a Vex controller? Should I try to buy or borrow a cRIO FRC1? Should I just roll my own controller?

and use it. If my understanding of geography is not faulty, the Killer Bees aren't far from you at all.
