^Originally, Max Gutiérrez and Trey Hutchens scored 17th and 29th for qualifying, but their times would be disallowed, due to their trucks being too low to the ground. As a result, Gutiérrez will start from the rear of the field, and Hutchens would fail to qualify. Chase Janes would take the 35th spot over Hutchens.[8]
