Autoracing Betting Lines

05/21/2010 - Concord, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Heavy rain forced NASCAR to cancel qualifying for Saturday's Sprint All-Star race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Kurt Busch will start on the pole, since the starting lineup for the race was determined by the order of the qualifying draw. Joey Logano will start alongside Busch on the front row.

Brad Keselowski will start third, followed by Jamie McMurray and Kyle Busch.

Denny Hamlin will have to start from the rear of the field after he blew an engine during practice earlier in the day. Hamlin's No.11 team has the first pit stall selection since they won the Pit Crew Challenge contest held on Wednesday in Charlotte.

Rain began falling on the 1.5-mile track during qualifying for the Sprint Showdown, the 40-lap preliminary race. NASCAR hopes to complete the session later in the evening, with 25 of 29 cars already qualified. Carl Edwards, Tony Raines, Derrike Cope and David Gilliland had yet to make their qualifying attempts. Juan Pablo Montoya currently holds the top spot with a lap of 188.055 m.p.h.

The 200-mile Camping World Truck Series race at Charlotte also is scheduled for this evening.
