Qualifying Results
The second and final stop of the Mid-West tour! Michigan provides the fruits of entertainment, especially last year. A pineapple hit the roof of Zach Michael's car during his Norwegian victory lap. He'll try to win the Miller Lite 400 again without the escapades. Dakota Wilkins earns his first pole since Homestead in March, hoping to duplicate his efforts with another victory from the top-spot! Points leader Johnny Reed Foley looks to extend his races-led streak to ten, starting from the 6th position. He's sure to nab one early, with he, Wilkins and Ryan Heuser as the three favorites coming in.
A dominant stretch by two struggling superstars. Ryan Heuser and Tony Pizzaro nabbed three-straight top-5's, turning their seasons around at opportune times. They were 29th and 28th in points just after Chicagoland. Now they stand 16th and 17th. Johnny Reed Foley's flat tire at Indy was the only transgression in keeping him on par with the two. Look for the #138 and #12 to finish up front again. All three will start inside the top-20; hopefully ahead of the three-wide mania after the green flag waves. Dave Miller pulled to a huge 87-point advantage over #87 Matt Raboin for 10th in the standings. This is the largest Chase-cutoff gap by far in 2024, hoping to cash in at one of the "Marlboro Man's" favorite racetracks. Ahead of him, Dakota Wilkins hopes to solidify his first Chase birth by cashing in on his pole in the Miller Lite 400. Big guns Matt Raboin, Timothy McDonnell, John Battista, Ryan Heuser, Tony Pizzaro and Scott Jackson will show no mercy in stealing his spot away. With four races left, expect at least one of them to crawl their way in.
