I think a flagman would be more dependable than all of that and probably a hell of a lot cheaper. It's more ceremonial than anything now days in Nascar. Other series it's different.
Dope is a good word. He thinks he is a villain, but all he comes off as is an idiot. He's moved from aw shucks Hamlin to thinking he's the against the world Hamlin when he wins after a 10 year losing streak at M'ville lol.
When they took drivers that gained spots in the Gained/Lost column and used a minus instead of a plus, I don't know how much simpler it could be.
They used to have a point system that was simple enough that a person could read what was published and figure it out in their head. That is...
It's just a coincidence that Nascar has decided to re-introduce a commissioner position to copy the structure of the stick n ball organization that the main characters come from that scream monopoly right?
I would settle for just the proper way to be able to figure out how Bell is 4th and Byron is 1st on a simple sheet that one could at a glance add the points and it would show how come that is so.
Re-doing the points system is beyond the realm of reason at this point.
