Another useless change, but I'm well beyond caring about NASCAR.

Why is there this mindset that drivers need more encouragement to push harder for a better finish? Surely you go into each race and try and get the best finish possible? It's only the end of the season where drivers might play it safer if they had a big points lead. Could it be that the cars suck in dirty air, and that's what's stopping drivers from being able to race to a better finish?

Wonder if this is why Edwards retired. Saw the format and thought fuck that, it's retarded.

Now, remember we're gonna have DW trying to explain this shit every week on TV.

It's gonna be amazing.

Can't say it does anything to change my lack of interest in watching beyond Daytona.

I think all of it is good, minus the playoff points. Basically nothing changes otherwise, the competition cautions we've had would be the end of a segment, it's going to be the same now just without calling them competition cautions and you get points if you're in the top 10 when it comes out. No harm there. More incentive to race, more ways to earn points, makes making the "chase" more valid.

A win no longer locks you into the chase. Someone can win or 'lead' at the end of 5 segments and it would be equal to a win. Lead at the end of 6 and you pass someone who has a win and only 5 playoff points. That's where I don't like the change. Still, you'll have to race harder for those segment points to tally up to a win.

If they want to know all the point system they are not just a casual viewer. Casual just wanna see good racin'.


Normally, I'd disagree, but I may have to go down that route. I don't want to explain stuff to new viewers if I don't understand it myself. I'd just point at the TV and say "here, NASCAR, go nuts".

Well, keep in mind, it's the drivers that wanted this change, so blame them.

Oh yeah, FOX might be entertaining just on that alone (besides Jeff Gordon putting DW in his place).

Mitch, don't worry about fitting in that much, otherwise you can just make a bot that copy and paste a bunch of words from others.....

Doesn't mean every driver agreed to the changes, though.

Case in point, the 2016 All Star Race. Thanks Kez.

Seriously though, weren't last year's all star format changes as well as last year's new g-w-c system developed in collaboration with the drivers council? Maybe the lesson here is drivers aren't the best people to ask how to run a racing series.

Pretty sure most of the All Star race idea came from Brad.

Well it seems we may know what Carl is up to next...

Quote:
Carl Edwards to run for US Senate from Missouri? From Terry Smith, a political science professor at Columbia College in Columbia, MO and a regular commentator on KBIA's Talking Politics:
"One more unrelated thing, and remember where you heard this first. Carl Edwards, the recently-retired NASCAR driver and hometown hero, will run against [Democrat] Claire McCaskill for the Senate seat in 2018."

The new GWC system has SO MUCH potential. If they would just move that stupid overtime line to the last lap, it would be great. As it is now, it sucks.

Yeah, I bet the drivers don't think about it as "potential" :roll:
