Looking at it from a Sport Management position, not just as a fan, I think it was a knee-jerk reaction to two or three years of dominance by one or two teams.

There seem to be alot of knee jerk reactions in NASCAR lately. That, apparently, is Brian France's management style. Like this crazy idea of limiting the number of teams a car owner can have. Roush has had five teams for years, and nobody has had a problem with it before. Now he finally gets all of his teams running well and they all make the chase, and what does NASCAR do? They want to punish him for it. That sends a really attractive message to potential owners (not to mention sponsers). Come on in, but if you are too successful then Lord God France is gonna knock you back down into your place. :shakehead: For the sake of everyone involved I wish Brian France would step down and turn control of NASCAR over to someone else before he totally destroys this awesome sport that it took his father and grandfather a lifetime to build. Rant over now

As Nascar has more of these seasons without several of the top drivers (Earnhardt, Gordon, Jarrett, Labonte, Harvick, etc.) in the chase, I think they will change the format again.
