Re: Should a programmer be a driver too?
Our drive team doesn't have any programmers on it but all three of them are on the pit crew. I don't see the point of having more people in the pit than needed. The drive team is in the pits before and after matches so why not have them lend a hand in fixing the robot? Plus we have a small team so we need as many people in the stands scouting as possible.
As for the programming person driving, my personal feeling is i don't care if all you did all year was sweep the floor when we were cleaning up, as long as you contributed to something for the team and you are the best driver, you will be driving. Oh you also have to know the rules as well as I do.
