If it were me The way the World champions' chase would settle is this way. the winner of the Points races of each division at the end of the year would meet at Bowling Green Drag strip for the Run-Offs

Don, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this kinda/sorta the way it used to be? You had to "qualify" to go to the World Finals?

The damn quotas may have a significant impact on the championships.

Not unlike ihra a while back. Thing I don’t care for in the one race takes all scenario is the world champion can be the guy that just got lucky that day. I know the whole chase is flawed, but I do believe earning points throughout the year and struggling to travel is part of the reward if it pays off

Top 6 in each division go to the finals. Then fill the 50 quota with past champions and gold cards. Then run off a 48 or 32 car ladder qualified off the index. Division winners are pre qualified 1-7 based on divisional points.

This is a great idea this way the level playing field is there with only 5 races in your division counting for the Championship Shoot Out Finals At Bowling Green Drag Strip / Who cares about the national events no one can get in unless you spend a ton of money to get in with a lot of points meets,
