Harvick claims Darlington pole; Almirola sets record
DARLINGTON, N.C. -- Aric Almirola has the record, but Kevin Harvick has the starting spot that counts most after Friday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series knockout qualifying session at Darlington Raceway.
With a lap at 183.479 mph in the five-minute third round of time trials, Harvick won the Coors Light pole for the Bojangles' Southern 500 on Saturday night at the egg-shaped 1.366-mile speedway.
The pole was Harvick's first of the season, his first at Darlington and the seventh of his career.
Joey Logano landed the second spot with a lap of 183.049 mph and will start from the front row for the third time in eight Sprint Cup races this season. Almirola qualified third at 182.946 mph after setting a track record in the second of the three rounds.
Marcus Ambrose (182.485 mph) will start fourth, followed by Brad Keselowski (182.059 mph) and Jamie McMurray (182.019 mph). Ryan Newman, Kyle Busch, series points leader Jeff Gordon, Denny Hamlin, Paul Menard and Martin Truex Jr. will start from positions seven through 12 on the grid.
Crew chief Rodney Childers, himself a former driver, advised Harvick to change his racing line after the first round of time trials.
"I was on the bottom all day in practice and Rodney felt like that, in order to get the pole, we were going to need to run the top after we ran our first run," Harvick said. "That's the driver in him. That's why he's good to have sitting there watching, because he knows what's going on.
"He can relay -- -and also having (spotter) Tim Fedewa up on top -- -as former drivers, knowing what's going on, they can relay what you need to do. We moved up and picked up in the second (round). I felt like I didn't roll through there fast enough. In the last one, I felt like I rolled through there pretty good."
In the first round, which pared the number of drivers eligible for the pole from 44 to 24, Menard posted a best lap at 183.946 mph, breaking Kurt Busch's previous track record of 181.918 mph, set May 10, 2013.
In round No. 2, Almirola one-upped Menard with a record lap at 184.145 mph on scuffed tires, despite having an electrical short in his No. 43 Ford that forced his team to push-start the car before it rolled onto the track.
"After that first session, when I tried to fire the car up, when I would go to turn the starter on and it would try to engage with the flywheel, the electrical system in the whole car would shut itself down," Almirola said.
"We obviously had a short in our starter or something, and every time we would flick the starter switch on, it would shut the electrical system down, so we had to push-start it the last two sessions. It made it interesting trying to blend on the racetrack."
In the second session, though, Almirola blended well enough to set the record.
NOTES: Logano is the only driver to make the final round of all seven knockout qualifying sessions held so far this season. ... David Reutimann failed to make the 43-car field. ... Coming off a 43rd-place finish last Sunday at Texas -- the result of an early accident -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start 15th. ... Six-time series champion Jimmie Johnson will take the green flag in 26th place after failing to advance to the second round of knockout qualifying.
