3 years agoKyle Busch has been the hottest driver in NASCAR over the last month or so vaulting to third in the points race. His average finish is now up to 10.1 which is excellent. That includes four consecutive podiums (one win) and a top-five result in six of his last seven races. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver since his win at Kansas has not had any major car issues post-Dover. That was a one-mile track and there is a bit of concern with the 750 hp-setup. However, the No. 18 is seventh in the last three years on intermediate tracks with two wins. Metrics gave him the pole for a reason this weekend.--Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
