07/02/2010 - Daytona Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brad Keselowski will start on the pole for Friday night's Subway Jalapeno 250, in what will mark the first race for the new Nationwide Series car at Daytona International Speedway.
Keselowski, the current points leader, turned a lap of 183.031 m.p.h. around the 2.5-mile superspeedway in his sporty looking Dodge Challenger for his fourth pole of the season and the seventh of his Nationwide career. He also won the pole for last week's race at New Hampshire.
"It's just a great car," Keselowski said. "Even the backup car was good enough to be on the front row. It's just an awesome team, and it's really coming together great. It was a solid run, and I cant' think of any better place to start than the front row."
Keselowski's teammate, Park Kligerman, qualified second after posting a lap of 182.242 m.p.h.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start third in his one-time deal of driving the No.3 Wrangler Chevrolet, which was made famous by his father, Dale Earnhardt.
"Yeah, I'm really happy with that," Earnhardt Jr. said of his qualifying run. "I want to thank Wrangler and everybody for putting this deal together. To be in this race car, I'm really proud to be driving it and just happy for this team."
Series regular Justin Allgaier qualified fourth, while Kyle Busch, who leads the series with six race wins so far this season, took the fifth spot.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Greg Sacks, Ryan Newman, Kevin Harvick and Joey Logano completed the top-10.
Sacks, who is driving the No.88 Chevrolet for JR Motorsports, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his first and only Cup victory, which came in the July race at Daytona.
With regards to the new Nationwide car, Ford will showcase its popular Mustang, while Chevrolet will bring a new model of its Impala, and Toyota will keep its standard version of the Camry.
Carl Long was the only driver who failed to qualify.
The 250-mile race at Daytona is scheduled to start around 8:00 p.m.
