Before Saturday night’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Clean Harbors 150 goes green at Knoxville Raceway, four qualifying races will determine the starting line-up of 36 trucks for the main event. The first of the rounds is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET with the 150-lap headliner scheduled for a 9 p.m. ET start time – all broadcast on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. This is the second time Knoxville has hosted the Truck Series on the half-mile dirt oval.

The four qualifying heats will consist of 15 laps each, with only green flag laps counting. There will be no overtime rule in effect, but pass and bypass procedures will remain. The starting line-ups for the four rounds were determined by a coin toss, conducted in order of team owners’ points standings. With 38 trucks on the entry list, there will be two rounds of 10 trucks and two rounds of nine trucks. The Truck Series field is capped at 36, so unless there is a late entry, two trucks will not qualify for the main event.

The starting formation will be determined by a formula that includes the finishing place and the number of positions a driver has gained during his heat. Drivers who win their respective heats will earn 10 points, second place nine, third place eight and so on. In addition, pilots will earn one point for each position gained during their round. No point deductions or “negative points” will be awarded to drivers who lose positions during their heat. Heat points are used exclusively to establish the starting line-up and will not count towards Championship standings throughout the season.
