Still no lap from Tony, gotta practice to qualify........
 
JB 9th and KP 26th!!

Guess Kyle is not the sore anymore, and if he is WOW must have a fast car!!
Good Luck Kyle and JB in Quals today!!
 
Of note 6 cars have practice laps over the current track record

Nadeau - 193.757
Newman - 192.954
Johnson - 192.754
Gordon, J - 192.699
Nemechek - 192.644
Harvick - 192.534

Current track record 192.137
 
looks like a crew chief change may have really helped Harvick. The first time at the top of the charts in a long time.

Good run for Park in 11th.
 
Heck i did not even notice Jerry in 1rst!! GO JERRY!! he sure does know how to go fast too bad he just does not finish with that speed
 
good runs, but erase that track record thingy......the current track record is 194.224 set last year by Bill Elliott. Like a fool I got the track record off of NOL, the last place that I should have trusted to know!!
 
here is the final speeds from NOL
