JEFF GORDON, NO. 24 DUPONT CHEVROLET met with media and discussed his luck and disappointment in the season thus far, preparation for the Coca-Cola 600, side skirts, and more.

Kyle Busch captured the pole for Saturday nights Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway with the qualifying speed of 45.335 MPH (119.112 SECS) for the second straight time.

TREVOR BAYNE – No. 21 Good Sam/Camping World Ford Fusion – “I’m sweating. I was so nervous going out there. I was sweating before I got in the car. I felt like we did well getting to pit road. That’s what I was the most nervous about was making sure I got there quick, but then speed and we smoked them a little bit, but we were slowed down enough."

A.J. Allmendinger (No. 22 Pennzoil Dodge Charger R/T) Qualified 1st “That was a good lap. More than anything the car just stuck to the racetrack. I was letting it free up off it, so it wasn’t anything scary. You know, we struggled a little bit in practice."

Prior to the annual Sprint All Star Race, at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, we were treated to several video highlights of this famous race from the NASCAR themed television shows.
