new points system is still missing the freakin point.......put the emphasis on winning!!! give the race winner a bigger bonus than 3 damn points! they should give 25 points to the race winner,that would make more teams really try to win,can you imagine kurt busch running second, inches from..say jimmie jonhson coming to the checkers,hell yeah he would turn johnson,but as the "new" points are he would be more likely to stay second because he would only lose 3 points to the race winner,which means more boring racing!!!!!i am only watching the plate races this year,brian france is a idiot and he has ruined what his father and grandfather built.
