Truex on Coca-Cola 600 Pole
By STEVE REEDAP Sports WriterCONCORD, N.C. (AP) - MartinTruexJr. put himself in good position for another strong showing at the Coca-Cola 600, a race he thought he should have won last year. Truexturned a lap of 192.328 to grab the pole away from Joey Logano on his final lap of qualifying Thursday night at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Truexwas running strong last year at the Coca-Cola 600, but Carl Edwards stayed on the track rather than pit and won, getting 62 laps out of his final tank of gas to win the 400-lap race. Logano has won the last two races at Charlotte, including the $1 million All-Star race on Saturday night. TONY's LAST RUN: This will be Tony Stewart's final chance to win the Coca-Cola 600, something he's never been able to accomplish in his career.
