So as I understand it thwy will not be showing any of qualifying, then they are going to show us the heats, but not the "B" Main????? What the hell! Who needs to watch "Setup" just give me the race! Does anyone know if there is audio or anything anywhere? Thanks!!

At 6 Central, it says qualifying and in looking further, it says qualifying heats. Then setup, whatever that is and then the race. I did not see a total schedule of events but I can't see them running a 'B' because there will be enough cars to run the 'A'. Am I missing something?

I think they are going to show the "B." The qualifying races are only like 8 laps long, and there's only 5 of them. Even at 22 seconds per lap, that's not going to fill the 2 hour time slot at 7 eastern (6 central). So I'm sure they'll show the "B." They are running a "B" because there's only going to be 30 trucks that start the race, and there's 36 (I think) entered. For those wondering, "Setup" is the half-hour pre-race show that SPEED shows before every Truck race. So obviously they're not going to dump that.
Signature here.

From the Eldora site.....
5:05 ET - Drivers will get 2 laps which will set line-ups for heats.
7 - Each of 5 heats is 8 laps and will set the line-up and help determine the field. 20 trucks are guaranteed which leaves 10 spots up for grabs for 16 drivers. One locked in spot per heat
8:45 - The final 5 spots will be awarded to top finishers in a 15 lap last chance race
9:35 - 150 lap main event, divided into 3 segments, 60, 50, and 40 laps.
