Autoracing Betting Lines

06/04/2010 - Long Pond, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch will start on the pole for Sunday's Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 after topping the qualifying charts at Pocono Raceway.

Busch, who will make his 200th career Sprint Cup Series start this weekend, turned a lap of 169.485 m.p.h. for his second pole of the season and the seventh of his career.

"To start on the pole for race 200 is going to mean a lot, and of course, it will mean even more if we can win this thing," said Busch, who won the pole at the 2.5-triangular Pocono track for the first time.

Busch is currently 29 points behind leader Kevin Harvick, who will start 22nd.

Clint Bowyer qualified on the outside pole after posting a lap of 169.138 m.p.h.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. took the third spot, while Kurt Busch, the winner of last weekend's 600-mile race at Charlotte, and Denny Hamlin, who won at Pocono for the third time last August, rounded out the top-five.

Tony Stewart, the defending race winner, qualified sixth.

"The first hour of practice, we weren't very good, then we got going through the last half-hour," Stewart said. "This has been a place where we haven't been that good lately, so we're going to try and get good again."

Juan Pablo Montoya was seventh, followed by Kasey Kahne, Ryan Newman and Jeff Gordon.

Four-time defending series champion Jimmie Johnson will start 25th.

Terry Cook and Ted Musgrave failed to qualify.

The 500-mile race at Pocono is scheduled to start just after 1:00 p.m. (et).
