Message: [QUOTE="NateW, post: 3731744, member: 4210"] I’m fine w stage racing for extra purse money for the drivers but factoring it into points is no good and stopping the race arbitrarily like that is infuriating to me. Totally messes with the flow of a race. It changes the sport too much. Have the stages but don’t stop the race. Playoffs are tragic really. Cheapens the championships. Ruins generational comparisons. I just hate it. Ive said before, if they want to change from the original points system then just have the # of wins be a trump card and have everything else sorted out by original points system. I don’t have a problem crowning the guy who won the most races, even if he didn’t accumulate the most points over the season. At least the wins were accumulated over 10 months. But for there to be such overwhelming weight placed on a few arbitrary/shitty venues just because they happen to be on the calendar toward the end of the season is an abomination, like you said.
