| After Round 18 of Atlanta, with the SCS feeling they should add a Chase For The Sony Cup System to decide the champion to add some more story lines has left many having mixed feelings about the decision.
A mid season change to the points format, drivers have protested that after racing from April til September understanding to win the championship their will be no Chase System and now this last minute change could change the outcome of the champion for 2015 and that it could cause the rightful deserving champion to lose because of the Chase System. Drivers and Teams have said they have been racing this season how they would approach a points battle of 36 races. Not a win and your in system and wait til Round 27 for the start of the chase to actually start fighting for a title. That teams and drivers have been fighting for a title since Round 1 in the DAYTONA 500. That this should be a season long fight til the bitter end and not some ride around and not worry too much about it racing til the chase starts. Every driver and team should be on their "A" game every round, not just show up when the Chase comes.
With the voice of the drivers and teams heard, Sony Cup Series Officials have decided to withdraw the plan of having a Chase For The Sony Cup. All Chase System plans have been dropped and now our focus on the points battle at hand with Jake Baskinger leading by 25 points over Ashley Mace in the main points will continue to be our main focus til the season end at Washington DC. Again this is very rare for protests to actually be won out by the public speaking, we want things to be as far as possible and keeping the tradition of the SCS not having a chase alive. | |

| WHO COMPLAINED!?!?!? I seriously want to know. A majority of us were on board with the chase system. | |

| Richerd Johnson, Luke Martin, Sean Perkins, Eric Burton, Matt Daleo, and I was very open minded and found the situation to not be very appropriate in the first place to change up the way the drivers were going after the title right at the halfway point in the season. So I took there thoughts into consideration and have laid it off and kept the SCS to how we were planning on going about this season. With no Chase. | |

| I was open minded. But setting it up halfway in a season, was a bit of a dud. Don't get me wrong, if right. It can be done pretty epic, Harvick and Newman proved that. But it could be wrong. I like the idea of the SCS having it. Because it's set up like a NASCAR series. But maybe you start the series with the bases of the Chase. That'll be okay. Midway, sounds silly. | |

| The topic of a Chase System for 2016 is up for debate but that is a discussion that will happen during the off season heading into 2016. | |

| I just thought changing the points outcome mid season was stupid. Now we can just focus on the people who deserve to win the championship. | |

| Martin: I didn't feel that it was fair to put in a chase when we were already halfway through the season. It's not right to change the format just to make the finish more exciting. If that's what everyone wants to do next season, that's fine. But don't change the format mid-season and screw some people over while helping out others. It's just not fair. We race all season to win a championship. Not win one race, then wait till the last 10 races to do something. What's that show? That you can win once and then show up for the last 10 races. This series is about consistency, not win and you're in. | |

| I'm not gonna nag on anyone, I just float along with what others suggest most of the time. But yep it's best to keep things the way they are and not make a change to things on the turn of a dime, and it's good that other people noticed it before things get out of hand. | |

| I will agree that is was stupid to start it up in the middle of the season, but I vote that we have the chase in 2016. We are in an offline league where we have no control over whether our A.I. does good or terrible. Also you're still not guaranteed a spot unless you win 2 or more races, and are in the top 25 in points. So you still have to watch and make sure you stay in the top 25. | |

| I am against a chase even in 2016, due to the fact that it makes the leading up races absolutely pointless. It isn't about if your AI driver does good or terrible, it is about constancy. Face it, my driver this year sucks... but I get that. Some people need to understand that one good race doesn't automatically give you a shot at a championship. You need to be consistent throughout the season! | |

| The first 26 races ain't pointless! That is probably one of the weakest points to make. You still have to be in the top 25 in points and have to get at least 2 wins. Its not like the first chase system were it was pointless. You're beating a dead horse. What matters is it more intense and fun to watch? Yes. I remember you were happy last year watching the new chase system unfold. It is exciting and produces great races.
The A.I. system is flawed and I accept that. Either way the A.I. doesn't matter you could still lose from it deciding to do terrible for the rest of the season. | |
