I realize that they had to do this with Dodge only having 3 teams next season. However, can they not just go with something based on last seasons results? I love the idea of having the 12 chase drivers in the field. I also have no grudge against including previous Bud Shootout winners as that was a part of the rules when it was a pole oriented race. Still, this is a little much. No way should John Andretti, Derrick Cope, and Geoff Bodine be anywhere close to being in this race. Marlin, Schrader, and Terry Labonte are only slightly better but still should'nt be in this race. With all of these hacks, my question is will you have start and parks in this race? Do the people in Daytona even think about some of these ideas before they announce them?

The past Daytona winners and Coke 400 allowed Junior to get in along with some other sponsor happy teams. Same old Nascar. They should have just said, "After further review, we like the following drivers and/or their sponsors...so they qualify."

this race became so insignificant once they dropped the pole winners entry requirement, so I dont care who races in it.
