Re: 2008 Budweiser Shootout

The NASCAR Bud Shootout, while not a points race does have a sizable purse on the line. This is pure racing with no BCS rankings to determining the winner. The race is a short one. Only 70 laps with an intermission at lap 20 and 50 laps following. The race also must end with a white and checkered flag finish under green. The field is a small one with only twenty-one drivers competing in the race and the rules are decidedly different from those you'd expect to see in a normal NASCAR race during the racing season.

There are a lot of things determined at the end of the previous year's racing season. Eligibility for the Bud Shootout is one of those things that is decided the year before. Right around December the list is published as to who will participate in this non-points event and you'll be almost guaranteed to see the best of the best in the lineup of racers. Each one has either won the Busch Clash, Budweiser Shootout or taken the Bud Pole Award the year before. There is a qualifying draw that sets the starting order of this race that has been the first of the season for more than two decades.

Since the NASCAR Bud Shootout is only an exhibition race, it doesn't really have any bearing on the racing season. But the fans sure do get a kick out of it. There’s no better way to start off the new year of racing than by catching the Bud Shootout and getting revved up for the racing season. You'll be able to see the newest model cars, the latest team paint schemes and all of your favorite racers as they get the new year off to a roaring start.

Thanks to NASCAR's Season Begins Anew With Bud Shootout - NASCAR at Fact Expert for this information.

Hey Team! Chunky Monkey Stew! I like that! LOL! I will be so mad if he goes on a diet! I like him just as is!

Ok back to the shootout! Tony is going to take it again and Dale Jr will come in second if he doesn't wreck that crappy Henderick car!
