How the Daytona 500 starting field is set :
Cars that finished in the Top 35 in the 2007 Owner's Points Standings WILL make the Daytona 500 starting field.
ONLY the top 2 starting positions will be determined by qualifying speeds on Sunday, February 10th.
Positions 3-39 will be determined by finishing orders in the Gatorade Duel races Thursday, February 14th.
The final 4 spots in the 43-car field will be based on qualifying speeds of cars not already with a starting position.
NOTE : However IF there is an eligible Cup Series Past Champion entered who has not yet qualified ...
that Past Cup Champion will receive the 43rd & last starting position no matter what his speed is ...
if there is more than 1 Past Cup Champion eligible for this position, it goes to the MOST RECENT Cup Champion.
Previous Champions NOT in the 2007 Top 35 in Owner's Points :
Kurt Busch - 2004 Cup Champion
Dale Jarrett - 1999 Cup Champion
Bill Elliott - 1998 Cup Champion2008 ESPN Stockcar Challenge MSF Champion :D
2007 Yahoo! Boogity Boogity Boogity Champion :D
