Cole Custer: Wins Xfinity Pole at Kentucky

Custer won the pole for the ALSCO 300 Xfinity Series race at Kentucky Speedway Friday afternoon. He turned a fast lap of 181.458 mph.

Analysis:

Custer edged Justin Allgaier in the final round of knockout qualifying to claim the pole position at Kentucky Speedway. It marks the fourth pole of the season for the Stewart Haas Racing No. 00 team. Custer had a five-race Top-5 streak snapped in his last action (DNF) at Daytona, and he'll look to resume his Top-5 ways in Friday night's ALSCO 300.
