    Bracket or Tournament Help

    I have a question about doing a bracket or a tournament page..
    This is in a DRag Race Format

    Here is the jef of what Im trying to do, need help on best way to do this..

    Lets say I have 10 racers, each racer puts in 5 cars each, then they want to run the cars 2 times makeing it a total of 100 cars..

    Im not sure how to build a bracket that will allow me to do this with these features in mind:

    One racer has 5 cars in the race, he races the car twice, so now he has 10 cars in total to run in the race.
    The bracket has to allow me to put him in 10 times, something like this:
    John-Chevy
    John-Chevy2
    John-Vette
    John-Vette2
    John-Mopar
    John-Mopar2
    John-Nova
    John-Nova2
    John-Truck
    John-Truck2

    Ok he has 10 cars in the race, we now have 9 other racers going to do the same way, now I need to randomly put all these drivers in a bracket or tournament format to were they race each other but they dont race themselfs. Which ever driver wins moves to the next bracket to race someone else that has won till the last car is left, even if one driver still hase several cars left because he hasnt lost with that man cars left.

    The opions Im looking for are as follows: Once I put all the names and cars in, Im able to click a button that will sort all the cars randomly to a bracket format, once the race is run, I can click on the car that won and have a option to click won or loss, this will sort him to the next bracket , if possable a place to put in his et's allowing him to get lane choice in the next race if his time is lower than the next car he races. The bracket will sort +- the et's and light up that car for that race who gets lane choice.
    All the races will run until there is no cars left, and we have a winner, I may have 5 cars left, and beat all the other cars..

    Looking for all the help I can find for this, any help would be apperciated, and If your interested in a project, please let me know.. Thanks Roger

    Set up the spreadsheet as best you can. I suggest using different columns for the drivers and the car names. Then set up how you want the bracket to look. Once you've gotten that far and have some specific questions, post the workbook that you've come up with and we'll try to help answer your questions to get it functioning the way you want it to.
    Is your code running too slowly?
    Does your workbook or database have a bunch of duplicate pieces of data?
    Have a look at this article to learn the best ways to set up your projects.
    It will save both time and effort in the long run!
