I'd suggest that you follow Deslaner's advice and have one Driver for the Base, and one Driver for the other functions of the machine. You should make sure that the two Drivers work well together so that they don't argue mid-match.
Or just make them take all of their orders from the coach. The last thing you want is to drive the robot by committee.
