Re: Driving Experience
Well this has been my first year as the main driver actually driving at the official competitions but I have driven since 2003 at the off season competitions. The best advice I can give is get as much driving time you can for practice, if that means driving around the shop with an old robot or if you are fortunate enough to have a practice bot it is good just to get time behind the sticks so it comes more naturally to you during a real match.
