If you shipped as pictured in 6 or 8wd configuration, all you would need to bring would be the mecanum wheels. A slide drive would be harder because you would need an extra gearbox and motor controller, but not impossible with 30 pounds. I can't speak for driver training, but judging from the teams that already switch mid season, it isn't impossible to adjust to a different drive.
