They just need the possibility to be competitive. Also, after you buy and build a car, you should have some expectation to not be crushed by a classing change the next year.

Having run autocrosses with points systems for mods, it doesn't really fix anything. You just end up with different cars that are competitive, but still clearly one car that people will trend towards because it has an advantage.

With performance points you can decide which combination of mods is best for you and your car. The system is dependent on making small adjustments so a dominant car loses a couple points and has to remove a part or move up a class, and the driver gets to choose. It self balances and is as close to fair as I have seen. Camber is a perfect example because we need it to make tires last, if its not allowed at all your only option is to change cars or destroy tires. That's expensive and dumb.
