KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 TARGET CHEVROLET SS – POLE WINNER
“I thought it would be Joey (Logano) too. Those Penske cars are fast every weekend. To get a pole here, my first ‘real’ pole (Kyle started on the pole at Richmond when qualifying was rained out) feels great. To come to a ‘tricky triangle’ like this there is no other race track like it. It’s fun because you get to shift and hit your marks. It’s difficult so I’m glad I could win the pole it feels great. Hopefully, we can get our first career win this weekend too in the No. 42 Target Chevy.”
ON HIS FAST LAP
“I had butterflies in that last round. I knew we had a shot at the pole after the second round. I was nervous and I hit all three corners about as good as I could, so I was really excited about that. Thanks to Target and everybody at the shop. They’re making the cars faster and faster every week and we’re getting better and better. I really think a win is coming soon maybe before the Chase starts. It’s really exciting. I got the pole at Richmond, but that was in practice. So, this is a legit pole and I’m really happy about that and it looks like a really good weekend.”
YOU WON THE ARCA RACE TWO MONTHS AGO WHEN YOU WERE HERE IN POCONO AND YOU’RE RUNNING DOUBLE-DUTY WITH THE TRUCK THIS WEEKEND. HOW MUCH IS THAT HELPING YOUR SPRINT CUP EFFORTS?
“I think any time you can get laps around here at Pocono it helps. This place is so different. Each corner is different. It really helps with your rhythm and things. We’ve been fast in every car I’ve run here so far, so that helps the confidence and I sort of like Pennsylvania more. I struggle in PA.”
