A Cup driver once again looks to be the one to beat in an Xfinity Series race, with Kyle Busch winning the pole for the Virginia 529 College Savings 250, his second pole of the season, fifth at Richmond and 44th of his career.
Busch’s lap of 122.073 mph put him ahead of fellow Sprint Cup Series driver Joey Logano, who ran a lap of 122.017 mph.
Brian Scott, who led 239 laps in this event two years ago, qualified third with a lap of 121.968 mph. Regan Smith (121.808) and Josh Berry (121.540) completed the top five.
Chase Elliott (121.141), Erik Jones (121.027), Austin Dillon (120.735), Ty Dillon (120.520) and Daniel Suarez (120.208) rounded out the top 10.
Brendan Gaughan (120.064) and Elliott Sadler (119.729) also made the final round of qualifying. They will start 11th and 12th, respectively.
Series points leader Chris Buescher was the first driver to miss the final round. His lap of 120.676 mph was good enough for the 13th starting position.
The Xfinity Series will take the green flag at 7:30 p.m. on NBC Sports Network.
