You gotta rebuild....

FIRST gives you enough in the kits to make at least a driveable robot in less then a few hours now, if your drivetrain custom drivetrain goes bad, you really have no excuse for not having a working drive (unless you broke the kit bot of course...)

Also, get what you can done and plan to build at your competition, thats what they give practice days for (as long as you stay within the rules and the spirit of the competition, of course). Im sure teams will be willing to share resources and materials there.


So after blabbing on, I say you gotta rebuild...you've gone too far and spent too much money to just quit.
