A crash by Chris Voelker during the 50-minute qualifying session caused a red flag with approximately ten minutes remaining in the session. At the time, Team Valvoline EMGO Suzuki’s John Hopkins had the fastest time with his GSX-R1000 and Michelin race tires.

When the session resumed for the remainder of its time, Dunlop-sponsored teams mounted their qualifying tires and lept to the top of the charts.

Kipp will start from the pole position for the first time ever in the Formula Xtreme class Saturday afternoon.
