Re: Driving Experience

This is my Third year on the team and Second as the main driver. Last year i kinda got left with this position; however, now i enjoy the thrill and pressure. For rookie drivers: "Dont care about the results, just stick to what you do the best, DRIVE!". For me, when i drive, somehow the crowd is irrelevant. The 2 minutes pass very quickly and its hard for me to notice that i am in an arena, driving in front of 1000+ people.

Communication is that key. You four(2 drivers, coach, human player) should act as if you were a single person. The only part thats hard is the wait while waiting in line to play.i Have drove about 30 Matches so far. I plan to take that 50+ this year. Its a great honour for me to be the team Captain and main driver; i hope that i make my team proud.
