Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. was seventh in his debut with Roush Fenway Racing. Bobby Gerhart, in his first time behind the wheel after a vicious crash in Pocono, took eighth in the number 5 Lucas Oil-sponsored Chevrolet that he drove to the last three Daytona victories.

Kyle Krisiloff returned to ARCA action in a 5K, perhaps with Gerhart's team, and set the 24th fastest lap, followed by former Busch Series champion David Green's Toyota. Canada's Andrew Ranger, formerly of Champ Car fame and fresh of a NASCAR Canadian Tire Series championship, but his 72 Chevrolet in 27th. 35th went to Frank Kimmel, driving a 44 Dodge for a team owned by himself and his brother in a partnership with Cunningham Motorsports.
