i drove for three years back in the day...here are just a few suggestions

1. Stay cool....dont let things bother you...once u get rattled your done...u need to have ice in your veins

2. Be able the think clearly n decisivley...u gotta make super quick decisions...learn to make them n deal with the outcomes

3. Be smooth...be able to put your robot where you want...whenever you want

4. Dont put added pressure on yourself...even after 3yrs of this i would still get nervous before a match and get that butterfly thing in my stomach....but i think that that is good pressure...just dont let any other thoughts creep into your mind...always take it one match at a time...NEVER look ahead to the next match

for practice i would just say video games....preferably nascar/gran turismo like games....those kinds of games make you be smooth so it kind of enforces the same ideas n skills u need for driving even tho u are using different controls


just some advice for you to think about
