Kenseth takes Nationwide pole

Nov 6, 8:42 pm EST

  • Print

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP)—Matt Kenseth will start on the pole for the NASCAR Nationwide Series at Texas, five spots ahead of points leader Kyle Busch.

Kenseth earned his first pole in his 13 Nationwide races this season, the 16th in his career, with a qualifying lap of 187.201 mph in his Ford. David Ragan also starts his Ford on the front row.

Busch, who has a 205-point lead over Carl Edwards with three races left, starts sixth. Edwards starts directly behind him in the No. 8 spot.

Busch won from the pole at Texas in April, one of his seven Nationwide victories.

    Motorhome_Tech you hit the nail on the head. That is exactly what needs to happen in order for the up and coming drivers to have a chance at getting ready for the Sprint division. Now all they can do is chase around behind the Sprint drivers and hope someone picks them up for Sprint. They shouldnt be expected to compete with these guys.

    No cup drivers and you then have a 36-40 car field. Maybe Nationwide should be 37 cars in a race instead of 43 and no full time cup drivers.
