Just remember that drive practice, especially drivetrain practice, can happen on the off season. Make sure that you're not just driving around an open field - include some tracks to slalom, targets to hit, and other game like features on your practice field. The driver will still need some time with the actual robot, which will undoubtedly have a somewhat different weight or balance or precision requirements, but a few weeks of practice with a similar drive train can provide a big leg up on mastering the new robot.
