Talladega Superspeedway, the track where the race will be held
Talladega Superspeedway, formerly known as Alabama International Motor Speedway, is a motorsports complex located north of Talladega, Alabama. It is located on the former Anniston Air Force Base in the small city of Lincoln. A tri-oval, the track was constructed in 1969 by the International Speedway Corporation, a business controlled by the France family. Talladega is most known for its steep banking. The track currently hosts NASCAR's Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, Xfinity Series and Gander Outdoors Truck Series. Talladega is the longest NASCAR oval with a length of 2.66-mile-long (4.28 km) tri-oval like the Daytona International Speedway, which is a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 km).
For this race, Cole Custer, Austin Cindric, Justin Allgaier, and Tyler Reddick had qualified for Dash 4 Cash at the previous race. Custer was the defending winner of the award.

Michael Annett began on pole. Brandon Jones spun out early during Stage 1, which was won by Tyler Reddick after he overtook Annett before the first lap. Noah Gragson would win Stage 2. Gragson brought out the fifth caution of the race when he spun out trying to overtake Reddick on lap 86.
Annett got loose and crashed into Justin Allgaier and Cole Custer on lap 96, though Allgaier's car was able to get repaired and return to the race. Annett and Custer were eliminated in the crash, which also collected Stephen Leicht, Austin Cindric, Ryan Sieg, and Cody Ware. Nearing the end of the race on lap 110, Jeffrey Earnhardt got loose and caused a Big One that took out Allgaier, Jeremy Clements, and Timmy Hill. David Starr and Alex Labbé also were involved but stayed in the race. The race was won by Reddick despite the minor damage to his car. He was able to hold off Gray Gaulding (who had his highest finish in the series) and the rest of the field after a late restart, also winning the Dash 4 Cash prize money.
