@Zachary Rugar That format relies too much on consistency, wins aren't valued as much under that format. The championship format needs to be a 50/50 balance of winning and consistency, which for me, the 2011 format is the closest that accomplishes this. Also in a buisness perspective, the format also needs to be legitimate (as in title battles occurring naturally) and entertaining (which manages to keep fans invested even when the points battle is sizeable).

Stockcars weren't normal in the late 90s and 00s. Gen 3 was the last of a stock era. Bubble car Taurus and bubble MCs. the Dodge Charger was crazy weird too. Look for next-gen to be as close to stock since the early Monte Carlo and Thunderbirds of the 80s.

Looking back on this now, it’s still pretty crazy that it happened. But it’s nothing compared to Daniel Hemric being in the final 4 in Xfinity. Because of that, there’s a chance that he could become, to my knowledge, the only driver ever to win a championship in a top 3 series without winning a race in his entire career. That’s another level of insanity.

Honestly, THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE YEAR THE SYSTEM WAS IMPLEMENTED IN THE CUP SERIES! 2014 Ryan Newman did not win ONCE and came 2nd.
