Unsure on whether you want the voucher or Kitbot? Here's something that'll help:

Do you have a custom drivetrain that's been proven to work that you've spent a long time perfecting and carefully designing, with all the math and physics done?

If no to any of those parts, kitbot is probably a good idea. Plus, this year it's an awesome kitbot.
SuperNerd, a "new custom drivetrain" really doesn't sound like one that's been proven to work and you've spend a long time designing. Conciser whether or not you're making a smart decision given your own guidelines.
