This business with provisionals is old. It ties up scarce spots in the field. It needs to be changed; here's how I'd do it:
In Nextel Cup, the most recent past champion would get a season long provisional. Period. The 42 fastest cars fill starting spots 1-42; the provisional starter starts 43rd. This is the only equitable way to allocate scarce resources among some 50 teams reputed to be chasing the Nextel Cup in 2007.
But wait, there's more: Something needs to be done with the points-just like the provisionals.
