Very simple...
-Run first 26 races as always.
-Last 10 races, the top 16 drivers get into The Chase.
-At the end of The Chase any driver within 100 points of the points leader gets shipped to Japan to run @ Suzuka Circuit. Any/all driver will run 100 lap race in the rain, at night. If you cant turn left and right, in the rain and at night...you cant call yourself "one of the best drivers in the world". The winner/survivor will be Champion.

Nascar has become a joke. It's nothing but a gimmick now.

K&N West and East Series Champion Dylan Kwasniewski will be driving full time in the #31 Rockstar Energy Chevrolet in Nationwide. NASCAR Sprint Cup driver Travis Kvapil was placed on two years probation Thursday and must perform community service as part of a deferred prosecution agreement in his domestic assault case. Kvapil, 37, faced misdemeanor charges of false imprisonment and assault after an Oct. 8 incident at his home. Under the prosecution agreement, the charges against him eventually will be dropped. Kvapil, who drove for BK Racing last season but does not have a ride yet for 2014, appeared Thursday in North Carolina District Court in Iredell County. According to court records, he pleaded guilty to the charges as part of an agreement that will dismiss the case after he completes two years probation (at least one year of supervised probation) and 72 hours of community service. He had to pay $460 in fees and court costs and must attend an anger management class. The probation stipulates that he can travel out of the state for work purposes as long as he gives notice to his probation officer. Brian Vickers has also been cleared to race Daytona.

NASCAR is somewhat fixed by the officials and Helton and France, so no matter what changes are made I expect Jimmie Johnson to "slide" under the inspection process, magically dominate the races, and win his seventh title. Him and his cheating will take NASCAR to new lows.

I can't wait for this. Is Dale Photoshopped into that? He's super more pixelated that the rest of the picture. Also, I wonder how Chase will fair now that he's in equipment that's not 10x the quality of everyone else.

Him and his cheating will take NASCAR to new lows. Ugh... None of that "cheating" garbage. He's a good driver and Knaus is a great crew chief. Every crew chief cheats. It's pushing the limits and trying to be the fastest on race day. Ray Evernham was notorious for this but yet he's known as one of the greatest crew chiefs of all time. Its why Gordon won 10-13 races a season in the 90s. Johnson may suck at Nationwide but the Nwide and Cup cars are completely different handling and horsepower wise. Thats why Kyle Busch dominates Nationwide but doesnt win as much in Cup. I'm not even close to being a Johnson fan but after years of watching him I've come to the realization that Jimmie is just a great driver, Knaus is a crew chief who is always pushing the limits. If any driver had Knaus as a crew chief they'd see some sort of success. (Example: 2001 with Stacy Compton. Even with mediocre Melling equipment he won two poles). We just have to put up with him until his talent starts fading (Example: Richard Petty in the late 80s-early 90s). I will agree that the changes NASCAR made are stupid. They're trying to become something they're not. I'd love to have the 2003 points back where the most consistent driver won the championship. Some people love this new elimination style Chase but it reminds me too much of handegg or basketball or baseball playoffs.

Some people love this new elimination style Chase but it reminds me too much of handegg or basketball or baseball playoffs. Knaus told Jimmie to wreck the car if they won, Im sure you seen that video. They got penalized the most since 2002. You say Gordon cheated HA HA HA. Go back and watch his old VHS movies from 97 and 98. Gordon had to go through a more rigorous inspection process, they even checked his fuel. Nascar tried to nail Gordon for cheating even if it was the most minute thing, but they never got him. You think Petty won all those races fair? Its called a hemi. You think Johnson won all his titles fair? Its called trying to create a face. Johnson is a good driver that exceeds by bending and or breaking rules. Dont tell me you think Danica ACTUALLY won the pole for the 500 in her first career start? That eas to create buzz and draw attention.

I miss the 90s and early 2000s.

Carl Edwards had the same thing happen to him following the All Star Race in 2011. He must've been cheating too, right?

But funny how there is video evidence of Knaus telling Johnson to wreck his car if he won. He told him to do it again. When have you seen someone wreck there car while celebrating there win in a points race?

When have you seen someone wreck there car while celebrating there win in a points race? Greg Biffle backed his car into the fence at Dover(?) during his burnout "accidentally". Accidents don't happen though.. so he was probably cheating too. There's also plenty of examples of burnouts causing damage to the rear end by the tires actually exploding. CHEATING!?
