The Budweiser Shootout, NASCAR’s season opening event, will undergo a major format change in 2009 with the top-six drivers in owner’s points for each car manufacturer eligible for a starting position.
NASCAR’s season-opening event is scheduled for Saturday night, Feb. 7 at Daytona International Speedway.
In addition, other format changes include:
- Event distance increases from 70 laps to 75 laps
- 10-minute intermission after 25 laps; teams can change tires, add fuel and make normal chassis adjustments
“We’re thrilled about the new format for the Budweiser Shootout,” said Daytona International Speedway president Robin Braig. “This new look for the Budweiser Shootout will provide added excitement for the race fans, teams, drivers and manufacturers as NASCAR kicks off its new season at its most storied venue.”
