As I said in a previous post, the need to keep track of points this year just as in 2000 magnifies the need for a second coach/mentor or whatever. I believe this game requires the extar coach and thus this was the wrong year to reduce the number of people in the driver station.
I am not necessarily arguing that it should be two adult coaches. Some teams prefer strictly students as coaches. The point is to have the extra person up there to help keep track of whether you are winning or losing and by how much. And, of course, the idea of giving one more person, whether student or adult, a chance to experience being on stage is very important as perk or reward.
