Qualifying was held on Saturday, May 4, at 11:35 AM CST.[10] Since Kansas Speedway is an intermediate speedway, the qualifying system used is a single-car, one-lap system with only one round. Drivers will be on track by themselves and will have one lap to post a qualifying time. Whoever sets the fastest time in that round will win the pole.[12]
Chase Purdy, driving for Spire Motorsports, would score the pole for the race, with a lap of 30.728, and a speed of 175.735 mph (282.818 km/h).[13]
No drivers would fail to qualify.
