Driving drills and practice

I wanted to know not just year specific driving practice techniques, but also techniques in general for improved driving. This year our team has a 4 wheel tank drivetrain, so for the next few months that's what I'll be practicing with. We also have an operational mecanum robot. I'd like to know what sorts of driving sets teams do from year to year to keep their drivers in top condition.

EDIT: No, we usually don't keep the same driver year-to-year. A few years ago it transitioned into a sort of Captain's Privilege thing.
