No love for Brian?

Brad gets bye, Leo gets two? I'm confused?

No respect for the car in the plain white wrapper.

I don't really understand the ladder very well - I usually lose first rd LOL

Short side of the ladder in a 69 car field produces two singles.

Daran Summerton · 04-03-2016, 08:21 PM

Wow that is great when it works out like that. Good for Leo his car is wicked.

Daran ,Same set up at Phoenix Div. with 73 cars. 5 byes.
They go Qualifiers 1,2, 3 , 4 ,1

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd of said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I been in the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car.... You know what I mean

Clear as mud - Not sure if I would ever run C/SA with Leo there Holy crap -1.08 on the brakes! He clearly understands the ladder, I wish I did.

If #1 makes it far enough, they get 2 byes with 17 cars as well.

There are some ladders where it is possible for some qualifiers to have the opportunity to get 3 bye runs.

It is possible to modify sportsman ladders so that there are no double or triple bye runs, but the NHRA was not interested in changing. Double and triple byes have only recently become a noticeable issue because there are no longer full fields. The smaller the field size, the more likely you are to have a double or triple bye run.

I have never seen a three bye
