I agree we will see big name drivers miss chase. Will Gordon win a raceOriginally Posted by 5mike5
I totally disagree but we shall see. But no way it's easier imo. Exact opposite.
Do you guys really think there will be 16 winners...come on. They still get bonus points for wins...in some cases would ensure advance to next round. Unless you think danica is a big name driver, none of the top guys will miss...baring injury of cousreI agree we will see big name drivers miss chase. Will Gordon win a race
Bad format. Randomizes champion. Teams don't have to use the radio to execute team orders. NASCAR needs to work on a better car, forget about gimmicks, stop trying to sell out. NASCAR is doing a good job of becoming irrelevant.

Not out of stretch at all. Brad went winless last year . Edwards had had years with zero wins. Bowyer also winless last year and add in new qualifying and yes we will see winless Drivers in top tier rides. Not a doubt in my mind
Plus at chase cutoff last year we had 13 different winners. Not a stitch that could be more this year with rule changes
Ill bet any amount we dont have 16 different winners.Plus at chase cutoff last year we had 13 different winners. Not a stitch that could be more this year with rule changes
Thanks crony for your input..you, once again are spot on
we shall see I think its a possibility this year . Once teams locked in you will see them experimenting.
Jay nailed it 10X worse than BCS
Sounds like no one here is favor of this and add me to the list. Honestly dont think the drivers like it either, but they have to be very careful with what they say.
My main concern is the betting standpoint, as nascar has been almost half my income for 10 years. The scary thing is how much will guys push their engines,tires,camber etc after they win one race. No matter how good a guy looks leading up to the race, if he has already won, he may be really pushing the limits with his car.
Hopefully it wont effect things too much, and I could definitely see more longshots coming in.
The winner take all last race is what is just making me sick. I guess you could say the patriots won every game and still went into the superbowl tied, but so many more variables in one stock car race to one football game. All in all I Hate it!!
Jmac I agree hate that final race scenario
Definitely possible to have that many b4 the cutoff. Guys that win early are in the chase so believe me it won't be the effort to win like usualPlus at chase cutoff last year we had 13 different winners. Not a stitch that could be more this year with rule changes
There we go, finally a reason!ok was just reading under this new system had it been in place last year your champ would've been Dale jr

I think that's what NASCAR wants.Do you guys really think there will be 16 winners
It's truly going to suck if we need to cap how likely a driver is to sandbag each week.how much will guys push their engines,tires,camber etc after they win one race.
Plus it will suck for fans who turn up to a race to see their guy not try as hard as they could.
At least we have sponsor demands pushing them to keep trying. Maybe.
Plus in my opinion some will win who didn't last yearDefinitely possible to have that many b4 the cutoff. Guys that win early are in the chase so believe me it won't be the effort to win like usual
Brad- He will win I do believe
Hamlin- should be a bounce back if healthy
Kurt- In much better equipment
Ambrose - always a road course threat
Bowyer- Not out of realm he wins one
Can't wait to see how it effects the bottom by years end.
If I make more $ than last 2 maybe I will like.
So say Michael Waltrip wins Daytona will he then run full season
Even helton couldnt keep a straight face... choking on every question. What a cluster..
