2013 Budweiser Shootout eligibility requirements already set

They changed the format because Coors didn't want their Coors Pole Award to be affiliated with the Budweiser Shootout (or vise versa, Bud didn't want to have anything to do with Coors, I don't remember which scenario it was), given that the two beer companies are rivals. Is Coors done as official sponsor of the Coors Pole Award after this season? As we all know, sponsors make the NASCAR world go around.

KRY BABY KY JELL FREAKIN FREAK OF NATURE DORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What happens if a driver loses this years ride at the end of the season and is unable to get a ride or has one but that ride/points are sold to another team??

Rusty, Coors still sponsors the Pole Award as seen this past Sunday at the Daytona 500 Qualifier. Carl Edwards won the Pole and with a Coors Model, they stuck the Coors Pole Award Decal on the side of his car together for photograph purposes.

Hmmm Brad K. is automatically in then?? Cause he's a Pole........

We can only hope that Geoff Bodine won't make a race this year.

NASCAM changes the rules to favor the top few teams and sponsors they favor. That's a fact. I could almost say this may be a good year for Ford but they will struggle. NASCAM favors Gubamint Motors. Always has. I bet if they held qualifying a day before the Daytona 500 Ford would do a lot better. GM and NASCAM have an entire week to figure out how to pick up speed on the Fords up front.

:"Save of the Century"...No other driver could have made those saves and come back and WIN but Kyle Busch!!!!

I wtched up until the first wreck and turned it off. Same old scam. I saw the video of #$%$ Smoke putting Kurt Busch in the wall. They said it was not deliberate. #$%$ #$%$ #$%$ #$%$ Yes, IT WAS. #$%$ knows that team does not have that many cars they can afford to have one destroyed. Jest another favored son of NASCAM that is allowed to wreck people and NASCAM looks the other way. Look at the 48. Caught cheating again. Well, apparently NASCAM could not sweep it under the rug. And what will they do? Nobody knows but one thing I do know. If it were a lesser team the penalties would have already been handed down and they would have been severe. Boycott NASCAM. Boycott GM. Vote Republican. Buy Ford.
