With the field size extended to 40 trucks I hope Norm Benning will be back at Charlotte. Also wondering how many backup trucks Reaume will enter, maybe we'll even have a rare Ted Minor sighting.

Hey, is KDB entered in that race? Is Jones eligible for Harvick's "Cup driver beats KDB" challenge?

Yes and yes.
Elliott, Poole and Smithley are entered too, according to Pockrass.
Poole finished 2nd to KDB in 2019.

Nah, I would be vying to get Klingerman and Jones into the field.

Yeah tough break for Jones. I believe they would have made the race easily if they would have had qualifying. Klingerman too.

I wonder if that is the most ever?

52 tried to qualify for the 2000 Daytona truck race, the first for the trucks at Daytona. https://www.racing-reference.info/race/2000_Daytona_250/C
I won't say with certainty that's the most that ever tried to qualify for a truck race but I'm very positive it is.
40 starting spots, however, is a series record.

I’M WONDERING IF THE TRUCK SERIES BOUNTY IS STILL ON BETWEEN THE DRIVERS AND IF YOU HAVE ANY PLANS TO RACE IN ANY OF THOSE UPCOMING TRUCK RACES?
"Yeah, as far as I know, it’s still on. That’s not my department to be real honest with you; that was Kevin (Harvick) and his people that put that up. I’m still planning on racing – planning on still running and trying to go beat Kyle (Busch), ironically enough after Wednesday. Yeah, still have full plans to run and as far as the bounty deal goes, I’m not real sure. I’m going to run whether they are still putting up the money or not."

47 entries for the second race in a row. Elliott and Busch going at it again.
David Ragan was scheduled to drive for DGR, but his entry was rejected just like 6 other drivers who already missed Charlotte.

Ok, I must have missed something along the line. When and why did trucks go back to a 40 truck field? 
StandOnIt
Farm Truck
Their excuse in not alowing more than 40 trucks was that it would mess up the prize money. What's the problem with paying the top 40 spots, and lower that that, better luck next time. Ragan and Klingerman among others were excluded from racing this week because Nascar is going by owner points.

They need to go to single file restarts there after the opening lap. It's just too much of a mess and what that track needs is long green flag runs. The passing opportunities and side by side action is incredible, but they wreck too often.
Cup needs to figure out how to race here, I think those guys could put on one whale of a show here with those cars and talent. Is probably logistically impossible though.

I have watched a ton of street stocks and mini stock restarts and I don't think that would solve anything, they're going be plenty of wrecks no matter what. The trucks are going to be pushing on the start no matter what form of restart is used.

yeah probably so, but the're are ways around that...see Eldora. It wasn't that long ago that the deathbedders were going on and on about the lack of truck entries, end of the trucks, the spec motor was terrible, on and on. Over 40 entries is a good problem to have.
