Drivers will be wide open in Indianapolis qualifying. Driver will look to pinch the entry and exit of the corners to scrub lap time.
This is the last NXS race of the season for Kyle Busch. He’s won in three of his six starts so far. Six cars have not set a time. Kyle Busch was in group two and he jumps to the top of the board topping Josh Williams (2nd) by over 2 seconds but many cars remain.
Kyle Weatherman has lost something important on his line. A large puff of smoke comes out of the back of his machine just 100 feet before he was able to complete his lap. He coasts to the apron but will need a push back to the pits.
Michael Annett collected damage after contact with Mike Harmon in final practice. NASCAR allowed the team an extra 30 minute in the garage area to work on the car. He sits inside the top 10 on his run.

Bell was thought to be a threat for the pole. But, even he’s over three tenths off the time set by Kyle Busch.
Brandon Jones was trending in the green early in his lap. But, he lost it on the second half of his lap. Jones comes up exactly one tenth short of the pole.
Cole Custer is the last car to the track. He’s not going to get it done.
