Kyle Busch captured the pole for Friday night's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event at Charlotte Motor Speedway, turning a top lap of 178.448 mph in the Friday afternoon session for his seventh Keystone Light Pole award.

Busch's pole-winning run denied James Buescher his first career pole. Buescher held on to claim a career-best second-place starting spot.

Donny Lia will start third in his career-best starting spot. Elliott Sadler and Ron Hornaday, Jr. rounded out the top five.
