playing the ladder

I've had the hard copy available for some time now, no worries.

Since my car is not capable to be in the top half of the field, my main focus (and perhaps those who may be a middle of the pack runner), is not to qualify in the final three positions, or the lower portion of the quickest half of the field...whoever the bottom three qualifiers are (and the slowest three of the quick half), will have to go out first during first round, and a cold track with little/no teeth on it, would not be something I'd want to embrace when it mattered most! My .02 worth .

What MJ said^^^^^

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.

I think you may be surprised as well, you ever wonder how certain people always seem to have the late round bye. Maybe it's a coincidence or maybe not, ofcourse you have to win 3 or 4 rounds to get that bye!

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.

Still have my "First Edition" from before the Pro Ladders came out! The binder`s a little duct tapped though.
