Budweiser Shootout Preview
,The Budweiser Shootout began as the
Busch Clash and was a fifty-mile "all-out
sprint." In its current format, it is made up
of two segments: a short 25-lap
segment, followed by a ten-minute intermission•
After the intermission, the race concludes with a
50-lap segment in which each car must make a
green flag pit stop• The race, like the Sprint All-
Star Challenge, carries no points for the winner
but rather a large purse. This is supposed to
encourage an all-out driving style not seen in
regular-season races, where one serious mistake
may hurt a driver's overall points standings.
