You may/may not have that problem.

We decided to abandon camera tracking at WPI because while they were kind enough to let us calibrate, the lighting was stronger on one side and was giving inconsistent results because of various event positions.

But there should be enough time for the driver to get accustomed manually, even if that means shooting from the same/similar place.
