    Ambrose takes Sprint Cup pole at over 203 mph

    Michigan Pole

    BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) The last time anyone was this fast in qualifying in NASCAR's top series, Richard Petty was still driving.
    He's an owner now, but when Marcos Ambrose won the Sprint Cup pole at Michigan International Speedway on Saturday for Richard Petty Motorsports, the Hall of Famer was on hand to put the accomplishment in perspective. Ambrose posted a speed of 203.241 mph, the first time since 1987 the 200 mph mark was broken during Sprint Cup qualifying.
    ''I can't hardly remember that far back,'' Petty said. ''To be able to do it on a flatter race track, not Daytona or Talladega, that is unheard of.''

    Finally! Good win for Dale Jr.! I knew he would get a win one of these weekends. Would love to see him win the Cup this year.
