Report
Michael House was scheduled to go out first in this session. He’s unable to continue in the event after a Thursday crash.
Chandler Smith rolls out first. He times at 16.551. However, that time has been disallowed for a cell phone infraction.
10 cars in, Derek Kraus jumps to the top of the board. He bottoms out on both laps into turn three and still jumped to the top of the times sheet. Sparks flew on his first lap, he entered higher on lap two. Less sparks and he leads so far.
Casey Rodrick spun on the warmup lap. He got it rolling again ad completed both times laps while jumping to the top of the board!
It’s short lived as Ty Majeski takes the top spot shortly after Rodrick.
Kaden Honeycutt was fastest in one of the three practice sessions on Thursday. He also led the only Friday practice session. Now, he jumps to the top of the board by nearly a full tenth of a second.
Kyle Busch was slow on his outlap as he warmed his tires. He was nearly clipped in the process but they avoided it and Busch jumps into the top 5 so far.
42 cars in, Derek Thorn jumps to the top of the board.
Sammy Smith was only timed for one of his laps as officials cut him off early. Now, track officials have allowed him to make another qualifying attempt at the end of this session after the mistake. The Kyle Busch Motorsports team was given the option to change tires, they changed the right side tires only. Smith rolls out for his second run but he’s no threat for the pole position.
With qualifying complete, Derek Thorn will roll from the pole position in Sunday’s Snowball Derby!
