Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

Evidently the fan base didn’t catch playoff fever and don’t value Game 7 Moments. This should be all they need to end this farce. The Playoffs and its one race championship are dead. Bury it.

That is why he gets paid the big money. More importantly, he didn't come up with that all by himself. The one's that live in the ivory towers know that also.

But it’s already,the narrative being laid no matter what changes they make: “our fans, for better or worse….”

Folks say no one complains about the sport like NASCAR fans do about their’s, well no one hates their own fans more than NASCAR Honchos do. That whole statement Steve-O laid out just dripped with contempt and sarcasm imo. It’s going to be the fans fault the playoffs didn’t work when it was a bad idea all along. Fans arnt stupid, a gimmick is a gimmick.

Eh, the media along with Nascar both have their parts IMO.

Oh sure. When whatever system is announced, say it’s a full season you’ll have the same media members that would chastise fans for wishing we could go back to that now say it’s the greatest thing ever. The whole well is poisoned if you ask me.

This year, I completely lost interest in NASCAR once the playoffs started. Sure, I still had the race on one of the TVs every week, obviously on mute. But hardly paid much attention.

Playoffs will never work in motorsports. It was a dumb experiment and the novelty has worn off.

Pretty much. Most of the fans who are griping about everything they can possibly find to gripe about will find something else whatever the format is It's not rocket science why Nascar pays little attention to the fans. BUT in this case and they have seen it for three years straight this one race defining who is champion for a year is B.S.. It was so lopsided in the Trucks and Xfinity who was the best that even the casual fans could see it for what it is.

I feel sorry for the 17th place team, they have no possibility to advance their season standing but they can lose positions. The playoff teams should not get a big point bonus; when they are eliminated from the playoff they should continue to compete with the rest of the field for their final standing.

That’s always been one of my biggest beefs with it. Maybe let the Championship 4 keep the top 4 spots in points, everyone else should regress back to the season-long standings.
 
All one has to do is think a bit. Lets do this or lets do that, and then the gimmicks begin to creep in. This is simple. Drivers playoff all year long, they all know each other, some hang out together. They don't go overseas and play the F-1 ers, or lets go race the Indy bunch.

Stick an ballers don't play each other every week. They need a playoff.
 
Stick and ball sports can have playoffs or not: Depends on their structure and history. I wouldn't want an English Premier League playoff because it isn't necessary there when every team plays every other team a set number of times home/away and the fans there never demanded it. OTOH if the English Premier League instituted a playoff and ratings and attendance dropped dramatically and sponsors were concerned about the fans reactions to the league, it doesn't seem very smart to assume the EPL's best option is to double down on what they'd been doing.
