Notes

- Sammy Smith leads the Super Late Model point standings over Derek Griffith, Brad May, Justin Mondeik and Gabe Sommers entering tonight's race.
- As a result of his win on Monday night, Craig Lutz leads the Tour-type Modified point standings after one night of racing.
- Saturday night's Super Late Model winner Stephen Nasse will not be racing tonight due to an engine issue.
- Super Late Model driver Bubba Pollard will be back in action tonight after missing Monday's race due to engine issues discovered after Sunday's race.
Format
ARCA Menards Series East drivers used a 90-minute practice/qualifying session to determine the starting lineup for tonight's 200-lap feature. There will be a halfway break at or around Lap 100. Teams will have four tires in the pits to use whenever they'd like during the race.
Tonight's format for Tour-type Modifieds and Super Late Models will feature qualifying (time trials) followed by a draw to determine an invert of four, five, six, seven, eight, nine or 10 for the feature race. 602 Modifieds will use practice times to determine the starting lineup for their feature.
