The last time I checked it is a free country and anyone can cheer who they want.  I don't cheer for either.....but I guess in your eyes the officals told Schatz never to get the points for time trials and told Pittman to go for it.  Hey....winning the most races doesn't always mean a championship!! Sometimes being consistant is more important!!  Maybe,  like this year...time will tell!!

What a childish comment....especially the "hater's gonna hate."  Both Schatz and Pittman have run the full schedule.  I believe Pittman is the points leader.  If you don't like the point structure of the traveling circus buy them out and change it to fit your personal liking!

Don't consumers have a right to comment on the product they're paying for? Point system is screwy

Certainly they have a right to comment but do you have to add such things as "haters gonna hate" to make your point? I don't think so.

I don't like the modern usage of "haters" either. That should be reserved for people like the KKK, not people who don't root for the same racer.

But nevertheless, point system is screwy. I'm not a Schatz fan, but if anyone deserves championship, its him.

Now if the whole purpose of points is to spread the $$$ around more evenly, thats a whole different story. Maybe they should all it a "consistency bonus" rather than "Championship"

Schatz has been more consistant, pittmams average finish is 6.0 schatz, 5.6 only thing Pittman has schatz beat in is time trials

I guess he better learn how to time trail then.  Because that is where he is losing his points.  Like I said they both had the same track to get those points during time trials and that is just as consistant and schatz having the better finishes during the features.

I Agree, based on overall performance, pittman deserves the campionship in this points format, but in my opinion too much is based on Qualifying, this is sprint car RACING, not sprint car Qualifying, should be more important to win races and finish in top 5 or 10, and this is coming from a long time Pittman fan, not a Schatz fan. Basing this on a totaly nuetral view.
