DOVER, Del. -- Chase Elliott followed his first win of the season with a pole at Dover, topping the speed chart on a blistering day at the track with a record 165.960 mph.
Elliott won last week at Talladega and kept the good times rolling Friday when he led a 1-2 start for Hendrick Motorsports. William Byron starts second for Sunday's Cup race.
Kyle Larson, Joey Logano and fellow Hendrick driver Alex Bowman round out the top five.
The new package this season had cars coming to the mile-concrete track with 750 horsepower and more downforce that led to the record speeds.
