MECHANICSVILLE, Maryland: Levi Kitchen (1:56.283) posted the fastest time in the first qualification session for the 250 riders, which held up for the fastest overall as rain fell hard on the second session for the class.
Cole Davies (1:56.596) was second on the chart, three-tenths of a second behind.
Davies trails Kitchen by one point in the 250 championship session. Rain is supposed to stop about the time the motos begin, but the questions will be how much damage the track took during the heavy rain and laps completed in the second qualification session.
Ryder DiFrancesco slotted into third with a time of 1:56.944, but he ran into trouble in the second session. He crashed midway through, but remounted without issue. DiFrancesco is coming off back-to-back top-fives.
Landen Gordon (1:57.173) was the fourth fastest rider. Gordon's best finish this season has been 11th at Thunder Valley.
Chance Hymas (1:57.325) rounded out the top five.
