points races were eligible to race for one slot in the Budweiser Shootout; there is no longer a qualifying race (as
there is no longer a 2nd round of qualifying). This was a DRIVERs race, so if Driver A left Team A and went to Team
B, then it was Driver A in the Team B car and the Team A car is not eligible unless they found a new driver who was
eligible.

2010 Chase for the Sprint Cup, and the winners of the Daytona 500 and Coke Zero 400.
The race will be 75 laps long, with two segments of 25 and 50 laps. Inbetween the segments there will be a pit stop that will last ten minutes. During the pitstop teams will be able to change tires, add fuel, and make normal chassis
adjustments, but they will not be allowed to change springs, shock absorbers or rear-ends. Also, all the work will be
done in either the garage or on pit road. The caution laps, as well as the green flag laps will be scored in the
race.
