I believe, Touring car world championships are a problem since the 80s.
Even with Grp. A it was a big political thing, and of course Touring cars are different around the world (America, Australia, Europe), so there can't be a match.
In a way, the Super Touring approach of the mid 90s was closest to a real world-wide series, because even in USA/AUS there were these cars on sale for street use. TCR base cars are mainly made for Europe/Asia, some brands even don't sell in USA/AUS.
European Championship might be the biggest possible approach, but even then you need different budgets regarding your origin (scandinavian racers need to travel more for mainly south-european races).
I think it is a good idea, to count a world-ranking based on local series. If it will work, is something to test.
Maybe it will be a good way, to bring more cars in local TCR-series, if you can earn points even there.
