2010 Piston Cup Season

The 2010 Piston Cup Season in PistonClip's Universe was the season that marked the first season under the new generation, as most of the veterans were either fired or retired. Ryan Shields and Crusty Rotor were fired following this season. Also, the Dinoco 400 moved from Motor Speedway of the South to Copper Canyon and the MSS race became the Dinoco Light 350, replacing the Retread 500, which became the season finale Los Angeles 500, and the Transberry Juice 400 replaced the Shifty Drug 350, as Shifty Drug left the sport following 2009. Bruce Miller, Brick Yardley, and Rex Revler were rookies this season.

Bruce Miller won the award after winning three races and finishing third in points. Brick Yardley won twice and finished tenth. Rex Revler won once but his inconsistency overshadowed him with a thirty-first place finish in points.

## Trivia

* This was Reb Meeker's worst season ever, from twelfth as a rookie to thirtieth as a sophomore
* This was Carl Clutchen's first season not on the podium, with a fifth place points finish
* This was the last season to have Gen 4 racers that didn't have surgery as Ryan Shields and Crusty Rotor were fired and the other Gen 4 cars had surgery prior to the 2010 season, while Shields and Rotor did not.
