Rob,
If you are setting up in the same location each time, one way to achieve quick setup is to make some marks on the ground where the tripod legs are located and an index mark on the mount to show the azimuth position after you have drift aligned.
Then next time you set up you just put the tripod in the correct location, level it and put the mount on with the correct azimuth. As Matthew says you will still need to drift align for long exposures but this method works fine for me up to a few minutes. I have three bricks sunk into the ground, each with a hole drilled with a masonary bit where the tripod leg needs to sit.
