Last year, we also used the wheel on the joystick to
regulate speed. I don't completely remember the code,
but it allowed the position of the wheel (0-254) to
equal the maximum speed the robot could travel when the
y-axis of the driver's joystick was in full forward.
To this, we also added a button function that
automatically set the variable to 254...kind of like a
"warp to hyperspeed" button (although we were NOT fast
at all to begin with).

Just my personal thoughts...
