Should NASCAR do anything with the Truck and Nationwide series point system?

I think that NASCAR should change it to when the Cup series drivers come to drive the truck and nationwide races, they don't take away points from the nationwide and truck championships. I hate it when people's favorite driver, in that series, doesn't get the points they deserve. Cup drivers can take A LOT of points from the drivers in that series and ultimately, it could change the championship in the end of the season. What do you guys think?

Update:

Instead of the top nationwide or truck finishing driver getting the 43+ points for being the top of the finishers of their series, the cup guys take away small amounts of points each race they are in. And those can really add up in the championship picture.

    As of I think 2011, Sprint Cup drivers competing in Nationwide & Camping World Truck Series races do not get drivers points. NASCAR made a rule that a driver must declare which of the 3 main series he/she is running in. So say for example, Kyle Busch, who won the NNS race last night. He declared the NSCS as his series so he only gets points there. So he got none for last night's win, though I believe the owners points he could get towards JGR.

    So the years of Cup drivers like Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, etc racing in both series & winning the NNS Championship are done.

    Cup drivers aren't taking anything away from the full time Nationwide or truck series drivers.

    It's still an even playing field for all of the Nationwide regulars.

    If it aint broke... enable's take it aside and adjust it at make it greater appropriate. as far by using fact the national factors equipment is going, if the guidelines are the comparable for each driving force, previously the race, then it relatively is going to no longer count.

    I think they should. Make it easier to follow across the board.
