  • Sadler Wins Pole at Texas

    Sadler takes 1st pole since ’06

    FORT WORTH, Texas (AP)—Elliott Sadler has won his first Sprint Cup pole in more than four years with a dominating run in Texas.

    Sadler zipped around the high-banked 1 1/2 -mile track in 195.397 mph Friday, nearly 2 mph better than front-row partner Greg Biffle.

    Sadler’s Sprint Cup future is uncertain after Richard Petty Motorsports switched his primary sponsor to Marcus Ambrose for next year. Sadler hasn’t been on the pole since the 2006 spring race in Talladega. His last win was Sept. 5, 2004, in California.

    Points leader Jimmie Johnson qualified 17th for the race Sunday. He’s locked in a tight battle for the championship with Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick. Harvick is 26th on the starting grid, and Hamlin 30th.

      He didn't just win the pole....he flat out torched everyone else by two-tenths.

      17th for JJ sucks, but on the flip side, still much better than where the 29/11 are starting.

        Should be interesting as a lot of the chasers are starting further back in the field. Someone is gonna leave Texas unhappy, that's for sure.
