Autoracing Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - Joliet, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Todd Bodine will start on the pole for Friday's EnjoyIllinois.com 225 Camping World Truck Series race after posting the fastest lap in qualifying at Chicagoland Speedway.

Bodine, the last driver to make his qualifying attempt in the 38-truck field, set a new track qualifying record at Chicagoland with a lap of 173.840 m.p.h. It was Bodine's second pole of the season and the seventh of his Truck Series career.

The series used its recently revised qualifying format at Chicagoland, with Friday's final practice speeds determining the qualifying order. The slowest truck went first, and the fastest, which was Bodine, came out last. The new format was first used last month at Pocono.

Austin Dillon claimed the outside pole with a lap of 173.650 m.p.h.

James Buescher qualified third, while Kyle Busch, the defending race winner, took the fourth spot. Busch also won last week's truck event at Bristol.

Johnny Sauter was fifth, followed by Shelby Howard, Ron Hornaday Jr., Aric Almirola, Narain Karthikeyan and Justin Lofton.

Johnny Chapman and John Jackson failed to qualify.

The 225-mile race at Chicagoland is scheduled to start shortly after 9:00 p.m. (et).
