It was déjà vu all over again for Toyota on Friday afternoon, when for the second consecutive Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race, Kyle Busch won the pole in his No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota ahead of the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota of Martin Truex Jr.
Last Friday, Busch and Truex qualified 1-2 at Dover International Raceway. This time, it was Pocono Raceway, where the two swept the front row for Sunday’s Pocono 400 (FS1, 1:30 p.m. ET).
“So far, so good, and to come out here gives us the number one pit selection and gives us the track position to start, but we have to keep it,” said Busch, who qualified at 179.
