Qualifying
Qualifying was held on Saturday, September 27, at 10:40 PM CST. Since Kansas Speedway is an intermediate racetrack, the qualifying procedure used is a single-car, one-lap system with one round. Drivers will be on track by themselves and will have one lap to post a qualifying time, and whoever sets the fastest time will win the pole.[11]
Brandon Jones, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would score the pole for the race, with a lap of 31.140, and a speed of 173.410 mph (279.076 km/h).[13]
