I couldn't even begin to price that kind of thing, but it occurred to me I couldn't really price out the motors currently in the kit either. I know many moons ago nearly everything in the kit, motors included, were donated.

These days the number of kits has obviously grown and motor selection is a little more elaborate. Does anyone know how much of the in-kit motors are donated, purchased or ___? What about motors made available for purchase by teams? Are those discounted somehow?

Now that I think about it, I miss some of the old motors. The Globe motor was awesome.
