RELATED: Eldora race format
Eldora is unique in both racing surface and format, especially when it comes to setting the starting lineup.
Keystone Light Pole Qualifying determined the official pole winner ( Caleb Holman ), but it doesn’t determine the starting order for the race, or even who starts first. It simply sets the lineups of the ensuing qualifying races, of which there are five. The finishing order from those events, plus a Last Chance Qualifying Race, sets the final order for the 32-truck field.
Follow along with us here. We’ll continually update results from the qualifying races and update the starting lineup, found at the bottom of this article.
