* Denotes Rookie

Not that it matters a whole bunch since only 2 cars are going to miss the race, but the following are locked in to the Daytona 500...

How the field for the 500 is set.
1-2 Qualifying Speeds
3-30 Twin 125 Results
31-38 Qualifying Speeds
39-42 Provisionals (based on 2003 owner's points)
43 Past Champion Provision (or based on 2003 owner's points if no past champion needs it.)


So....

1. Greg Biffle
2. Elliott Sadler
31. Dale Earnhardt Jr
32. Ricky Rudd
33. Dale Jarrett
34. Kevin Lepage
35. Kasey Kahne
36. Joe Nemechek
37. Casey Mears
38. Kevin Harvick
39. Matt Kenseth
40. Jimme Johnson
41. Jeff Gordon
42. Ryan Newman
43. Tony Stewart


Positions 31-43 can improve this position in Thursday's 125s, but this is the worst they will start in the Daytona 500.
