The Budweiser Duels are scheduled for Thursday. The duels consist of two, 60 lap – 150 mile races that will determine the starting order for NASCAR’s season opening race, the Daytona 500.

The field is divided in half for each duel, Daytona 500 qualifying speeds set the drivers position for the duels; even numbers in one race, odd numbers in the other.
