Kyle Larson Wins Xfinity Pole at Bristol

BRISTOL, TN =- RIS – Kyle Larson might not do the triple at Bristol Motor Speedway, but he won the pole for today’s Xfinity race.  The first two rows are locked up by Chevys, and Kyle Larson in the No. 17 HendrickCars.com Chevy is on the pole. Larson came up short in the NASCAR Truck Series race last night, P2. This afternoon, he hopes to win his first Xfinity Series race of the season.

Young Conner Zilich will start second tonight.  “It was smooth, the first lap. So, it’s either going to be good or not good,” Larson said to a reporter after winning the pole. “That’s why I got loose my second lap, I just, the first lap felt so smooth that I was like, ‘Well, I must be slow.’ So, I pushed a little bit more and then he said we had the pole down the back so I kind of just bailed from there.”
