So, get a prototype base up and running early in the build season for your drivers to practice with!
I could NOT AGREE MORE!! We went into St. Louis with no practice assuming it would not be very hard to learn in minimal time. Are driver went out there with no practice and it was terrible! GET PRACTICE!
