Re: playing the ladder
In honor of one of my best professors from my educational days:
"I sincerely question the accuracy of this" ...It would be interesting to know the accuracy of different drivers efforts at obtaining their goals when they "play" the ladder. Given the number of variables determining a final ladder, one has reason to suspect the best at it have very limited success. Just a feeling. Doug Jonak |

Re: playing the ladder
If you can dial a place on the ladder (other than the top 3 or 4), you deserve a degree in "Bracketalogy" ....contrary to what was said earlier that most make a "balls out" run in the first Qualify session.....I believe many carry a lot of extra weight, unless they slam the brakes at the end. But, that is not hard to figure in eliminations trying to figure how much your opponent is holding..... changing weight seems to me to throw off your competition, and move up the ladder if ya need to. Just my 2 cents.
