NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series championship rivals Layne Riggs and Kaden Honeycutt will share the front row for Friday’s Zero Carbon Bioethanol 150 at Phoenix Raceway, the fourth race in the Chase for the Truck Series title.

Layne Riggs, driving the No. 34 Love’s RV Stops Ford F-150 for Front Row Motorsports, will be in control of the initial start, though, after posting a blazing lap of 27.039 seconds (133.141mph) to win the pole – his fifth of the year – by more than a tenth of a second.

Kaden Honeycutt will start Friday’s 150-lapper from the second position, with Chandler Smith, a teammate of Layne Riggs’ rolling from the third position. Landen Lewis will start fourth in the No. 45 Niece Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado RST, with two-time NASCAR Truck Series champion Ben Rhodes rounding out the top-five after leading practice.

Ty Majeski placed sixth in qualifying, with youngster Tristan McKee in seventh, TRICON Garage teammates Tanner Gray and William Sawalich in eighth and ninth, and Connor Mosack completing the top-10.

Drivers in the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Chase that will start outside of the top-10 on Friday evening include Christian Eckes in 13th, Grant Enfinger in 15th, Gio Ruggiero in 16th, Daniel Hemric in 18th, and Tyler Ankrum in 21st.

34 of the 36 drivers entered in Friday’s event posted a time in qualifying, with the exception of Frankie Muniz and Ben Maier, who will start 35th and 36th.

The Zero Carbon Bioethanol 150 at Phoenix Raceway will take place Friday at 7:30 PM ET on FOX Sports 1. The race was originally scheduled to be on FOX Sports 2, due to Major League Baseball post-season coverage, but after the Guardians beat the Brewers on Thursday, the coverage was concluded.
