Yea me,adrl official and tim mcamis had a few words about it! Tim is the one that came up with a 14 car pro ladder. Some of the other racers and the official said it was wrong!Spike I watched the whole thing and was a bit confused too...
first round:
1 vs 14, 2 vs 13, 3 vs 12, 4 vs 11, 5 vs 10, 6 vs 9, 7 vs 8
Second round:
1 vs BYE, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6, 4 vs 5
SEMI:
1 vs 4, 2 vs 3
FINAL:
1 vs 2
It aint rocket science.....

The problem is their computers don't generate ladders that way. Someone has to hand write it out. Nobody wants to do that.
Instead of that, could have just did a 16 car ladder, and give 1 and 2 a bye first rd then everyone runs next rd 8, 4, 2 but that would be too simple.You can manually create a ladder after you've drawn one up, yes. But all of the auto generated ladders do that crap where someone has a bye in the semis. Or other goofy stuff.
If programmed correctly the computer can generate a simple ladder like that with no problem.Maybe its the fact that I work at INDY, but I thought all computers had a way to generate any number ladder they wanted.
