nnaaaaaawwww
The chase is a 'made for TV' event...
All the drivers know what they need to do whether they have been in it or not.
Thanks kinda like saying a team maybe not know how to play in the Super Bowl just because they never made it there before.  How many teams have made it to the Super bowl,.. and ALWAYS lose..??  Some are that way.

MOST of the race "teams" have been there,.. so the team owners, crew chief on a team, etc HAS been in the chase and has some experience (ie Stewart was in the chase last season,.. so they know what to expect to help Hamlin)
Only exception is RCR.

ONLY thing that could be a problem is the "individual" pressure a driver feels from being in the chase,.. but then again,.. thats why they make the big bucks.
