Atkins lights up Charlotte with track record lap

It was all smiles for Ben Atkins after his track record lap secured his first pole of the 2017 STARS LIS season at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Atkins, who was the 38th driver on track after registering 4th in practice times, beat Frank McBrien's 28.724 by three hundredths to steal the pole away from the retiring driver.

The previous track record was 28.970, meaning Caitlin Conway, who went out 21st in the order, was the first to beat the track record. She qualified 15th, meaning 14 other drivers also beat the record, but it is Atkins' name in the record books.

Other notable qualifying efforts include Bradley Carlisle and Evie Vance securing a McBrien Racing row 2, while Grant Macintosh was joined in row 3 by Joshua Sanders, a great effort by the New Jersey born youngster. Ruby McBrien sits on row 4 with Ryan Matthews, last weeks winner on her outside, while ATK Motorsports teammates Casey Lester and Matilda Dillinger round out the top 10.

There was also drama for Dean Donohue, who spun out of turn 4 and hit the wall in the quad-oval, coming to the line. He technically finished his lap, but will go to a backup car after his crash.

There was one DNQ for the race, as Dalton Johnson could not get going, sending the #7 Extenze machine home early.
