Busch edges Montoya for Busch pole

Autoracing Betting Lines

08/11/2007 - Watkins Glen, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kurt Busch won the pole for Saturday afternoon's Zippo 200 Busch Series race at the Watkins Glen International road course. The No.39 Penske Dodge circled the 2.45-mile circuit in one minute, 12.569 seconds (121.540 m.p.h.).

The pole victory was Busch's first of the season and second of his Busch career. His only other pole was last year, also at Watkins Glen.

"I don't run Busch all that often and so when we come to the race track with this group of guys we're going for the win," said Busch. "We just won a small battle right now, there's still a big-time race this afternoon."

Starting on the front row with Busch will be Juan Montoya who posted a time of 1:12.846.

Ryan Newman (1:13.002) and Robby Gordon (1:13.154) will make up row two.

Carl Edwards finished a distant 30th last week in Montreal and with it lost 65 points in the standings. Somehow, the No.60 Roush Fenway Racing Ford driver will have to continue on with just a 787-point lead in the Busch Series championship. Edwards still leads the series with four wins (tied with Kevin Harvick), top-fives (13) and top-10s (17).

Behind Edwards are David Reutimann (-787) and Harvick (-919).

In fourth place overall is a surprising name to most - Jason Leffler. In the middle of his second full year of Busch racing, Leffler is set to improve on last year's 13th-place finish.

The green flag is set to drop at 3:30 p.m. (et).
