Re: Driving Tips?

  1. Keep cool (literally and figuratively, keep hydrated)
  2. Think on your feet, have a reaction for everything that could happen on the field
  3. Know your robots limits, don't overdrive (no pun intended) and cause unneeded failures
  4. Take constructive criticism, listen to input from other drivers and team members
  5. Don't get a big head, your human, everyone else on your team is, don't act like your worth more then them
  6. If you break something on the robot, offer to help the pit crew fix it
  7. Be adaptive to different strategies, yours may not be the best
  8. Leave all biases on the field, when you come off the field be friendly, and not hold competitive grudges
