Evaluate your resources. If you don't have them do not do it. You need to go into a kick off knowing how to do this drive train. Deciding week two to do pivot drive I guarantee will lead to a heap of frustration. Link to this years effort.

When everything is tweaked pivot drive is a joy.

And read EVERYTHING on 1640's wiki. I was working on a pivot drive as a class project and I cannot tell you how useful their website is. Thanks guys, you saved me a ton of work.
