The main problem I could see with this whole plan is that drill motors is that drill motors have varying strengths and this could give an advantage to teams that are able to spend more money on the drill motors themselves. Now if it was only limited to buying the same drill motors that come in the kit, that may work. I think that could be a good idea but it does give more of an advantage to those teams that can spend, yet again.

I really think that if you're blowing the 60 amp fuse you're really doing something wrong. It usually is symptomatic of bad wiring or bad motor outputs (i.e. bad ratio, etc.). I don't think the extra drill motors would add to this because I know many teams used two drill and two fisher price motors on the drive and didn't seem to have problems. I personally think this is more of a non-issue.
