Defending Cup champion Tony Stewart will be on the pole, with Greg Biffle sharing the outside of the front row. Carl Edwards will start third, followed by Mark Martin and Jimmie Johnson.

Matt Kenseth is seventh, followed in eighth by Jamie McMurray in the No. 26 Ford, formerly the No. 97. Kurt Busch will start ninth based on Rusty Wallace's ranking a year ago in the No. 2 Dodge. Jeremy Mayfield rounds out the top 10.

Sleet and rain in Bristol today. There may be some clearing tomorrow where they might get the Cup race in. Looks like Monday for the Busch guys...
