The National Points Championship is a season-long competition for BriSCA Formula 1 Stock Cars.
Drivers' scores at every stock car meeting were recorded to create the championship table.
During the late 1990s, when Frankie Wainman Junior dominated, there was criticism that the National Points Championship was predictable and favoured drivers who had the money to race at as many meetings as possible.
Rather than the points accumulated over the entire season counting towards the winner, the National Series was competed for over 35 designated meetings.
The drivers raced over ten designated Shootout rounds, with the points scored in them deciding the winner of the National Series.
