With February underway, the start of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season is right around the corner. The Busch Light Clash preseason exhibition race is scheduled to take place at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum this Sunday, and the season is officially scheduled to get underway two weeks later with the 66th annual Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway.
It is believed that the entry list for the 200-lap "Great American Race" at the four-turn, 2.5-mile (4.023-kilometer) high-banked Daytona Beach, Florida oval is not done growing. But even if it is, that still leaves us with 41 cars, and just 40 cars can compete in the event.
The 36 charter entries are all locked into the race, including the one which does not yet have a driver (Rick Ware Racing's No. 15 Ford).
As of now, there are five drivers going for the final four spots. Two of those spots are set to be determined in the single-car qualifying session (Wednesday, February 14) and the other two are set to be determined in the Bluegreen Vacations Duels (Thursday, February 15, 7:00 p.m. ET on Fox Sports 1).
Here's a look at where the entry list stands at the start of the month.
