Maybe some sort of points bonus for advancing the most positions in the race. Haven't thought that one totally through yet.
That's the one!
I've had the idea where no top ten finisher of a race can accumulate the same amount of points as the driver finishing in front of them, but this may be a moot poing with the new points system.

Agree maybe he can get lessons from Johnson, Stuart, Kenseth or any number of drivers who "lost it" at Kansas.

One thing that would be interesting is the top 10 (maybe top 25) are the only spots that are awarded points.. that way you keep those crashed cars off the track, less debris cautions.

How about more like the Australian super car series, no more cirle track. Race the cars and trucks together. My last idea is:
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

Do away with California, Texas, Michigan, Kansas and the cookie cutter tracks. Work on the points system, add some more road courses and short tracks...
