Since there are only 12 tracks, each will have 2 races one early, one late. The dates will be determined by proximity to the last track.No more bouncing back and forth .
There have been some modification to the existing Rule Book.
There will no longer be a ‘template’ for the cars-No COT no #### “run what you brung!”
Prerace inspection (for safety) will be just that- you pass, you’re in.
Post-race inspection (for rocket launchers) will be made by REASONABLE people.
Qualifying will be determined either by a ‘guess the jellybeans in the jar game’ OR last week’s slowest will qualify first. The first race, whoever “sets up camp” first qualifies first. (We don’t give a dip dingle what you did last year)
The field will no longer be frozen during the yellow.(you can race back to the yellow flag)
Lapped cars will restart at the back of the pack.
No top 35 rule (note I don’t think we have 35 drivers anyway) This also means that anyone can just show up at the race and qualify (except full time NASCAR drivers that have been removed from the above drivers list)
NO restictor plate, NO debris cautions,NO lucky dog.
Yellow laps will no longer be counted in the total laps raced.
Pit road speed is whatever you feel safe with and there is no longer a commitment cone.
You are not required to wear pants in the pits.(just for you)
If you spin out twice (without help) you will NOT be rejoining the race.
There is no ‘chase’.It's all or nothin' baby!
And you can use any tire (or tyre) you want!
By popular demand there will be NO announcers from any recognized network.
Kristin Valus has been nominated to lead a team of fellow bloggers (feel free to nominate more)to announce the races. Any Driver that has been ‘cut’ from the list above may also be nominated. (But can be removed from the booth at anytime).
By a pretty even margin, there will only be one and a half boogity’s before the race.
I must tell you all to BUCKLE UP- you’re gonna need all the safety equipment you can find!
"Believe it or not, there is a NASCAR rulebook. It's 184 pages, mostly in black and white. But it does contain some gray. And it's within those gray areas that NASCAR officials make calls that can stir up confusion and controversy. ... NASCAR officials do need some wiggle room. Sometimes decisions must be based on a case-by-case basis. They are made quickly in a high-speed, high-action sport. That's not easy. But NASCAR must limit those gray areas as much as possible so officials won't be put in the tough position of making a judgment call that could cause criticism and confusion. --Dallas Morning News
And this one
-
"All eligible competitors in each NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series championship race are awarded championship points per the NASCAR Rule Book," the committee said in a statement.*
As I have stated elsewhere.
What followers of other sports don't seem to realize is the fact that; in all the other sports discussed here the rules ARE WELL KNOWN they are published, debated, and accessible to anyone who wishes to read them.
Spend a few hours (or minutes) discussing anything with an umpire and you will know what I mean.
NASCAR Does Not make their rules and regs available to any and all who wish to read them.
"Only teams, drivers, NASCAR Officials can get a Nextel Cup rules book. NASCAR does not sell them."*
"Each NASCAR Rule Book is published exclusively for NASCAR members."*
But I believe I have concrete evidence of the actual book.
What else ……………………………………………….. pictures!
So there you have it.
I got a peek at this

NEW PIC Klvalus now you know what you are looking for, your mission is clear!
