Thus, according to NASCAR rules, they will fall back from their original qualifying position for the green flag at 2:30 p.m. ET.

Jason Leffler qualified seventh in the No. 2 Dodge, but it was reported the team found some metal in the oil on Saturday morning. The entire 12th and half of the 13th rows will fall back, as well.

Rich Bickle qualified 23rd in the No. 15 Ford and Tom Carey Jr. qualified outside of him in the No. 03 Chevrolet. Both teams made changes because of mechanical problems unrelated to the motor.

Bickle's truck threw a belt during Happy Hour and Carey's change is due to a head gasket.

Ken Schrader opted to race his self-owned No. 52 Chevrolet on the off weekend for the Winston Cup Series and qualified 25th. However, he will join the others in the back of the field after his motor change.

Ryan Hemphill qualified 33rd in the 36-truck field, so he will only lose a few spots after changing motors in the No. 51 Dodge.
