Autoracing Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - Madison, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trevor Bayne claimed the pole for Saturday's Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250 Nationwide Series race after topping the qualifying charts at Gateway International Raceway just outside St. Louis.

Bayne posted a lap of 133.567 m.p.h. around the 1.25-mile track for his second career Nationwide pole. His first pole came one year ago at O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis. The series competes at ORP next weekend.

"This is incredible timing for this team," said Bayne, who drives the No.99 Toyota for Michael Waltrip Racing. "We really need something like this, and it's a great feeling to be starting on the pole."

Rookie Colin Braun claimed the outside pole after turning a lap of 133.349 m.p.h.

Points leader Brad Keselowski qualified third, followed by Brendan Gaughan and Paul Menard.

Brian Scott, also a rookie, Brad Coleman, Carl Edwards, Steve Wallace and Kevin Harvick completed the top-10.

Earlier in the day, Harvick won the 200-mile Camping World Truck Series race, which was delayed one day due to a lengthy power outage.

Bayne's teammate, Ryan Truex, who is the younger brother of Sprint Cup Series regular and two-time Nationwide champion Martin Truex Jr., will start 19th in his series debut. The 18-year-old Truex won the 2009 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East championship. He currently holds the points lead in that series.

Chris Lawson, Derrike Cope, Jeremy Clements and Michael McDowell failed to qualify.

The 250-mile race at Gateway is scheduled to start around 8:00 p.m. (et).
