Reddick, the defending series champion, claimed the pole with a speed of 167.069 mph. It is Reddick’s fifth pole of the season.
Reddick will be joined on the front row by fellow championship driver Cole Custer (166.692 mph).

The top five is completed by Austin Cindric, Brandon Jones and Chase Briscoe.
“We made (the car) better (from practice), but I definitely thought I didn’t put together the best lap,” Reddick told NBCSN. “But it just shows these guys work really hard on these race cars this year ... We’ve got a pretty good car and I’m really curious to see where it goes after five laps. I don’t really know.”
