wreck #2: On the first lap, another wreck, when #34-Andretti slowed causing #2-Busch to slow. #42-Montoya got into the rear of the #2, sending Busch into the wall. The #2 team will go to a backup car, the sixth team to do so far. If the drivers cannot get the backup cars on the track for practice, they will have to start the Bud Shootout from the rear of the field, no matter what starting spot they draw at the Budweiser Selection Show Thursday night. #14-Stewart had to go to the garage midway thru and have the radiator changed as debris went thru it. #48-Johnson went out for a lap after the wreck and parked it for the night after running only two laps.(2-4-2010)
