Busch brothers claim front row at home track

I just finished watching qualifying for Las Vegas. It's a pretty interesting front row with brothers setting 1 and 2. To bad for Kyle that he will have to go to the back of the field after the engine change. What about our 2 in a row winner Matt kenseth? He will be starting all the way in the back,but as close as the qualifying times were I think he could still win it from there. Not that I will be cheering for him to do that I'm just saying it can be done. We will just have to wait until sunday to see what happens.

The Busch brothers claimed the front row at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but an engine change will prevent Kyle and Kurt Busch from starting next to each other Sunday.

Kyle Busch blew his motor during Friday's practice session, forcing him to change it before qualifying. The new engine helped him post a pole-winning lap of 185.995 mph.
That was better than older brother Kurt's lap of 185.707. But Kyle Busch will have to drop to the back of the field at the start of the race, and third-place qualifier Jimmie Johnson will slide into the front row.
The Busch's are from Las Vegas, and neither has won a NASCAR race at their home track.
The last time brothers qualified first and second was in 2000, when Rusty and Kenny Wallace swept the front row at Martinsville.
