We asked at NYC because we happen to have two cRIOs, and alot of spare time. We had a tcp client/server coded out, we where mainly just gunna send printf data to one, and use the serial port as a console output. But the inspector quoted that exact line from the check list, saying you can only have one, not taking into account the max price rule.
However what we did think of, and haven't come across any kind of rule against, is using a usb-serial or a usb-ethernet adapter on the driver station, and putting a crio and power board on you driver station. You could have a perfect scale model of your robot on your driver station, with working motors, and what ever else you could want.
