the chase ... the "debris caution" within the championship. Hey, why don't they do a 6 car green-white-checker with the last three races?
I still think the Chase is Bull.
And thats not only because I root for the 24.

Anyone go back and calculate the points standings using the various points systems used before the "classic" one?

Here's an article from the magical land of 2003 that shows how well boring, old, consistent, Matt Kensith would have done with point systems that put more emphasis on winning.
