SVG given strong North Wilkesboro starting spot
Shane van Gisbergen’s #97 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet Camaro.

Qualifying for the Window World 250 was abandoned due to inclement weather, which meant the grid was set based on the performance metric.

That metric is based on 70 percent of the previous race finish and 30 percent of the owner points.

Team Penske’s Ryan Blaney, who won at Atlanta, will start on pole position with Joe Gibbs Racing’s Ty Gibbs alongside him.

The top 10 is completed by Christopher Bell, Carson Hocevar, Tyler Reddick, Erik Jones, Denny Hamlin, van Gisbergen, Chris Buescher and Chase Elliott.

Trackhouse Racing driver Ross Chastain was set to start 13th but will start from the rear after his car failed technical inspections three times.

Chastain lost his pit selection and a crew member and will have to serve a drive-through penalty.
