The race marked the first time that the Firestone alternate tires were used at an oval. Teams had 10 sets of tires they could use during the weekend, divided between 8 primary tire sets & 2 alternate sets. Teams were allowed the use of 1 set of alternate tires during first practice and, similar to road/street races, were mandated to use 1 set during the race. No alternate tires were allowed to be used during qualifying.
Due to inclement weather, qualifying was moved to 11:00AM ET on August 27, 2023. Originally, qualifying was scheduled for 2:00 PM ET on August 26.
The race started at 3:40 PM ET on August 27, 2023.
