Championship 4 driver Cole Custer won the pole for today’s Xfinity Series season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway (3:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN).

Custer earned his sixth pole of the year with a top speed of 165.598 mph. Custer is the defending winner of the Ford EcoBoost 300.

“It gives me some confidence for sure, but obviously it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t pay to win the pole,” Custer told NBCSN.

Christopher Bell qualified second at 165.345 mph. He has started on the front row in four of the last five races.

Tyler Reddick qualified fourth and Daniel Hemric will start 10th, his worst start of the playoffs.

The top five will be Custer, Bell, John Hunter Nemechek, Reddick and Austin Cindric.

Elliott Sadler qualified seventh for his last race as a full-time driver.
