Re: Choosing Drivers

Our team really has no specific way of choosing. We normally just have the secondary driver (controller of the arm, etc.) from the previous year graduate up to the main driving position. This will usually happen their senior year. I, myself have been a driver for the team (both secondary and the main driver). I started out by controlling the shooting and ball pick-up in 2006. I then became the main driver in 2007 (my senior year). Usually to even start out driving, our drivers have some experience, whether it be with RC vehicles or video games. I play a lot of racing video games and do a lot of RC racing, etc.
