Cole Davies was more than one second quicker than the field during the morning qualification sessions for the RedBud National in Buchanan, Michigan, posting a lap of 2:19.661 compared to second-place Caden Dudney's 2:21.048.

Davies' time would have been faster still if he had not failed sound and lost his best lap.

The 250 divisional points leader, Levi Kitchen (2:22:081), was another second back on a track that was pummeled by rain on Friday.

Ryder DiFrancesco (2:22.082) and Michael Mosiman (2:23.517) rounded out the top five.

That means the other two riders ahead of Davies in the championship standings will start outside the top five with Julien Beaumer (2:23.607) qualifying seventh and Jo Shimoda (2:24.082) posting only the 11th fastest time.
