Haiden Deegan entered Round 6 at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington, as the fastest qualifier in the past four rounds, and he extended that streak with a lap that was nearly one second faster than the field.
Deegan (49.415) posted a lap that was nearly one second faster than second-place Levi Kitchen (50.323) and more than one and a half seconds better than the remainder of the field.
Kitchen has been second to Deegan in qualification in every round except the season-opener in Anaheim, California, as he continues to look for the magic that will allow him to cut into Deegan’s massive points lead.
Michael Mosiman (51.107) landed third on the chart during a season that is reestablishing him as a top contender.
Maximus Vohland (51.606) was fourth fastest.
From Group B, Ayden Shive landed fifth overall with a lap time of 51.623.
