Re: Driver tests 1

Looks like, particularly with some practice, you have some valid driving talent! :-)

I love how the walls are lined with tables... makes it harder to dent the walls! ;-) Although the obstacle course is good, I might encourage doing some "lining up" tests... FRC driving is rarely doing figure-eights, but more often quickly acquiring a game piece, driving around an obstacle or two, then scoring. I don't have great recommendations for how to better evaluate those particular skills without an arm, but something to think about. Best of luck!
