That's what we did this year too. A lot of the potential drivers hated the system, but they didn't show up to most of the driving practices, so I never changed it, and drove myself. The other nice thing about using this system was that I could use the Y-axis joystick with my left hand and grab it near the bottom (since it's a right-handed stick anyway), then use my left hand for the buttons and the desensitized X-axis (since we didn't need the power spin).
