    Qualifying last, Kyle Busch did what he'd never done before -- he won a pole on a road course, shattering the track record at Watkins Glen International on Saturday.

    "This feels very good," Busch said after posting a lap of 126.421 mph around the 11-turn, 2.45-mile circuit. "I've won races at road courses, but never been the fastest guy for one lap. Joey Logano did it at (the road course) at Sonoma (in June). Hopefully, we can get a win."
