Re: Drive Team Fatigue
Everything here looks great! I personally think it all depends on the people on your drive team. I was a driver for 3 years and my partner for 4, we never felt fatigued through all our competitions together. Part of it might be the adrenaline we felt towards the end of the competitions from the close matches and playoffs. Another part might be the lack of stress we felt. We both understood how important matches and everything was, but we were always relaxed throughout. My advice personally would be to just have the drive team stay calm no matter what happens, whether something breaks or you just posted the high score at your competition. Until the playoffs where the adrenaline is constantly pumping, I feel its best to waste as little energy on worrying or celebrating until everything is over. "Over" meaning what your teams priorities are, whether its going for a specific award or winning the whole thing!

Basically what I'm saying is, Stay Calm and Drive On!
