we go through various optical courses then who ever come out on top is the driver

There are a few things we do.

1: We let every wannabe driver apply.
2: They take a rules test to make sure they understand the rules (especially coach).
3: The 1st and 2nd drivers we select are decided by who can control and use the bot better when we test it.

We set minimum standards for being able to control the robot. Anyone who can meet those is guaranteed at least 1 match. Then we pick our best driver based on who can drive the best over all of our designed strategies and an alternate.

I would like to know how people's driving stations are going to look this year ours fits the width but not the depth. Do we have to rebuild it? Also our drivers are picked by people who understand the engineering constraints of the robot.
