Thursday night marked the return of "Flyin' Ryan". Newman won the pole for Sunday night's longest race of them all - Coca-Cola 600 @ Lowe's Motor Speedway.It's his 1st pole of the season, but it comes less than a week after his "boss" won the All-Star race last Saturday night. Should this surprise anyone? Newman leads all active drivers with 8 poles @ Lowe's Motor Speedway. It's his 44th pole in 272 Sprint Cup Series races.
