Qualifying would take place on Saturday, April 7, at 11:10 AM CST. Since Texas Motor Speedway is under 2 miles (3.2 km), the qualifying system was a multi-car system that included three rounds. The first round was 15 minutes, where every driver would be able to set a lap within the 15 minutes. Then, the second round would consist of the fastest 24 cars in Round 1, and drivers would have 10 minutes to set a lap. Round 3 consisted of the fastest 12 drivers from Round 2, and the drivers would have 5 minutes to set a time. Whoever was fastest in Round 3 would win the pole. However, qualifying would be rained out midway through the first round. NASCAR would decide to cancel qualifying and decide that every driver who ran a time before the red flag would have their times retained. Then, the drivers who didn't run a time would qualify based on owner's points. As a result, Ryan Blaney of Team Penske would win the pole after setting a time of 28.439 and an average speed of . Two drivers would fail to qualify: Mike Harmon and Matt Mills. Full qualifying results
