Toledo Speedway, the circuit where the race was held.

Toledo Speedway is a half-mile paved oval racetrack located in Toledo, Ohio, United States. It is owned jointly by Roy Mott and NASCAR. It is operated by NASCAR and run as the sister track to Flat Rock Speedway in Flat Rock, Michigan.

Toledo was one of the oldest tracks to still host an ARCA Menards Series race until 2019. Starting in 2020, after NASCAR bought ARCA, the race became part of the rebranded ARCA Menards Series East (former NASCAR K&N Pro Series East). However, due to COVID-19 related scheduling changes, the track ended up hosting three ARCA races in 2020, and returned on the national schedule in 2021.

The first and only practice session was held on Saturday, October 5, at 11:45 AM EST, and would last for 45 minutes. [8] William Sawalich, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would set the fastest time in the session, with a lap of 15.992, and a speed of 112.556 mph (181.141 km/h). [9]
