Exactly. Crazy fact: Richard Petty won his last championship in Dale's first year. Dale won his last the year before Gordon won his first. And Gordon won his last title the year before Jimmie debuted. Like you said, it's all about the era. And now I believe we're close to a new era led by Kyle Larson & Chase Elliott

Logan Fisher Jimmy is a great driver, but you can't compare him as the 3rd best because of the number of championships. He would only have 4 if they didn't change the format. I'm old school and not a fan of the chase. It makes it possible to be mediocre during the regular season, make the chase and still contend for a championship. Mediocre for 26,then great for 10 doesn't equal the best of 36 to me. That's just my opinion. Everyone has the right to their own.

These is for the ones that don't know but in the old point system he would only have 4 chanpionships. In that point system he was in you could not win a race and become the champion. Let's say you won a crazy amount of 25 wins before the chase starts (hypothetical). Well when the chase starts you are number 1 well you have 5 bad races and 2 top 5 someone who finished in the top 5 or even ten the last races they would win to me the best driver didn't win. That's how he won many times he would do ok before the chase not win the most races and win the last two or three and boom he wins it all if you win the most races and have the most top finishes you should win in my opinion that's how it was back in the day.
