Oh ok, I missed that. So the vex kit is basically $300 which includes everything I need except the wheels. I could use the omni wheels for an extra $80 or so but I'd really like to use mecanum wheels. Which means I'd still have to make my own. So would you say I'm better off spending the $300 on the kit than trying to mod an existing r/c car and getting a 4 channel transmitter? I guess I should really compare their $199 Protobot kit with modding an r/c car. I think if I try to mod it, I would spend more than $199 in money and stress in fitting the motors, finding the parts, working the drive train, and all that fun stuff.
