*Withdrew due to the team breaking the rules, as they did not know they had run an illegal nose on the car. NASCAR rules state that 2018 bodies for the car after June 30, 2021 are only allowed for dirt races and road courses, and as Norm Benning had a 2018 body, they were forced to withdraw.
**Withdrew due to unknown reasons.
***Driver changed to Chris Hacker in order for Hacker to make his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut.

## Starting lineup

Qualifying was determined by a qualifying metric system based on the previous race, the 2021 United Rentals 176 at The Glen and owner's points. As a result, Austin Hill of Hattori Racing Enterprises would win the pole.
The entry of Clay Greenfield of Clay Greenfield Motorsports and the initial entry of Chris Hacker for On Point Motorsports would fail to qualify, albeit Hacker would replace Lawless Alan in the #34 Reaume Brothers Racing truck to ensure that he would make his debut.
