- The General Tire 150 will be run under the Modified Live pit stop format. Every caution is an opportunity to pit, and drivers who do choose to pit will realign behind the drivers who do not elect to make a pit stop in the order they entered pit road in the following order: lead lap cars that did not make a pit stop, lead lap cars that made a pit stop on their scheduled lap, lapped cars that did not make a pit stop, lapped cars that made a pit stop, free pass recipient, wave-around cars, and cars under penalty. A team can change tires and add fuel during the same pit stop, but not simultaneously. Tires can be changed under green only if damaged and approved by an official; fuel is not to be added under green.
- Should the race need to be extended into overtime, there will be unlimited attempts at a two-lap “green-white-checkered” finish. Should the caution be displayed after the white flag, there will be unlimited attempts at a one-lap “green and white together” finish.
