Drivers will be on track by themselves and will have two laps to post a qualifying time, and whoever sets the fastest time in that round will win the pole.^[10]

Christian Eckes, driving for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, would score the pole for the race, with a lap of 22.755, and a speed of 118.655 mph (190.957 km/h).^[11]
