Budweiser Shootout Gets New Format for 2009Posted by: Kerry Murphey in News[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Aug. 26, 2008) – The 2009 Budweiser Shootout at Daytona will have a new format that puts more emphasis on the series’ four manufacturers – and the same star-power appeal that has become a season-opening tradition for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and its fans.


Bud Shootout[/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]The 31st annual season-opening event at Daytona International Speedway will be held on Saturday night, Feb. 7, with a field of 24 cars representing the top teams from Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford and Toyota that will showcase the close competition in NASCAR’s premier series. That lineup will consist of the top six teams from each manufacturer, based on the final 2008 car owner points.
The race distance will be increased from 70 laps to 75 (187.5 miles) on the 2.5-mile tri-oval. The race will have two segments, of 25 and 50 laps. Both green- and yellow-flag laps will count.
