Kurt Busch scooted to the top of the leaderboard in Thursday’s opening NASCAR Sprint Cup Series practice at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Busch registered a fast lap of 192.843 mph in the Stewart-Haas Racing No. 41 Chevrolet in the first prep session for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 (6 p.m. ET, FOX, PRN, SiriusXM), the series’ longest race of the year.

Busch’s lap was .233 seconds faster than Jimmie Johnson, who leads the 1.5-mile track’s all-time win list with seven Charlotte victories. Johnson turned the second-fastest lap at 191.252 mph in the Hendrick Motorsports No. 48 Chevrolet.

Defending race winner Carl Edwards was third-fastest at 191.042 mph in the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 19 Toyota. Kevin Harvick (190.772 mph) and Kyle Larson (190.745) completed the top five.

Joey Logano, a winner at Charlotte last weekend in the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race, encountered some trouble before turning the sixth-fastest lap. Logano’s Team Penske No. 22 Ford slowed with a broken rear spring as he exited pit road to open the sesssion, forcing him to the garage for repairs.

Reigning Sprint Cup champion Kyle Busch, Edwards’ JGR teammate, clocked the 10th-fastest lap of the 85-minute session in the No. 18 Toyota.

Coors Light Pole Qualifying for the 600-mile race is scheduled for Thursday at 7:15 p.m. ET (FS1). Two more Sprint Cup practice sessions are slated for Saturday.

NASCAR.com was privileged to have two ballots cast as part of NASCAR Hall of Fame Voting Day on Wednesday. Senior writers Kenny Bruce and Holly Cain each submitted their five nominations for induction in the Class of 2017 and a vote for the Landmark Award for Outstanding Contributions to NASCAR.

A spirited discussion and voting process created one of the most intriguing classes in the stock-car shrine’s history with Richard Childress, Rick Hendrick, Mark Martin, Raymond Parks and Benny Parsons selected as Hall of Fame members. Martinsville Speedway founder H. Clay Earles received the Landmark Award.

Here are Holly’s and Kenny’s ballots cast Wednesday with their choices for induction:

Kenny Bruce

Ron Hornaday Jr. No one dominated NASCAR’s Camping World Truck Series like Hornaday, the only four-time series champ. He remains the leader in career wins, top-five and top-10 finishes in Truck Series history.

Mark Martin. The working man’s racer; Martin finished second in the premier series points battle five times and earned 40 wins in 882 career starts. His XFINITY Series record wasn’t too shabby, either.

Benny Parsons. Folks who knew Benny the Broadcaster might not know just how talented Parsons was behind the wheel of a race car. The 1973 premier series champion, Parsons won 21 times, including victories in the Daytona 500 (1975) and World 600 (’80).

Raymond Parks. The Atlanta-based businessman not only provided much-needed financial assistance as the newly formed NASCAR governing body got up and running, but Parks was a successful car owner as well. His career as an owner peaked in 1949 when driver Red Byron won NASCAR’s first Strictly Stock crown. A year earlier, Byron had won the group’s first Modified title in a Parks-backed entry.

Robert Yates. As an engine builder, Yates helped power Bobby Allison, Darrell Waltrip and Cale Yarborough to 77 victories. As a car owner, his drivers won three Daytona 500 titles, 57 races and 48 poles.

Landmark Award
H. Clay Earles. His Martinsville Speedway was there from the beginning (actually before NASCAR was formed) and it remains a popular stop today as one of three short tracks on the premier series schedule. Keeping up with the changing landscape of the sport wasn’t easy, and no one did it better than Mr. Earles.

Holly Cain

These are the Hall of Fame votes I considered the most worthy and timely, considering a ballot of 20 of the sport’s most deserving people. I tried to decide on a well-balanced group of drivers, owners and technical people and considered time on the ballot, too.

Some I did not vote for this year I feel like will be definite choices in the upcoming Hall of Fame votes.

Red Byron. NASCAR’s first champion should be in its Hall of Fame for historic reasons. He won NASCAR’s very first race on Daytona Beach in 1948, won NASCAR’s first “season” championship and then its first Strictly Stock title, which is the modern era Sprint Cup crown.

Raymond Parks. He owned the first championship car driven by Red Byron and for many of the same reasons Bryon needs to be in the Hall, so does Parks. Even after the two early titles he fielded cars for greats such as Bob and Fonty Flock. He is the sport’s heritage, its beginning.

Benny Parsons. Many current NASCAR fans know Benny from his ease and skill behind the television microphone and camera once he retired from driving a race car, but he was an amazing competitor, too, winning NASCAR’s two biggest trophies — the 1973 Cup championship and the 1975 Daytona 500. Perhaps most amazingly, he finished among the top 10 in 54 percent of the races he ran.

Waddell Wilson. It is impressive Wilson was so successful both as an engine builder and a crew chief. He built the motors that David Pearson and Benny Parsons drove to titles and as a crew chief led Buddy Baker and Cale Yarborough (twice) to Daytona 500 wins. He built the first engine that broke 200 mph — driven by Parsons in qualifying for the 1982 Winston 500.

Robert Yates. This is another example of the ultimate in successful multi-tasking. Similar to Wilson, he built championship-quality engines (1983 with Bobby Allison) and then Yates owned a championship team, fielding the car with which Dale Jarrett won a title in 1999. He owns three Daytona 500 wins as part of a 57-win legacy as a team owner and won 77 races as an engine builder.

Landmark Award
Ralph Seagraves. This was a tough category. My selection was based on his contribution really being a turning point for the entire sport. Under Seagraves’ leadership, RJ Reynolds provided top-dollar, high-promotion sponsorship of the sport that lasted for more than 30 years. It thrust NASCAR into another stratosphere as far as the American sports landscape was concerned and absolutely created a foundation that is still enjoyed today.

Mark Martin told the tale more than once on NASCAR Hall of Fame Voting Day this week, about his connection to fellow inductee Benny Parsons.

Martin was a teenager — “a nobody,” as he termed it — with racing dreams carved from his earliest days of wheeling cars on dirt. Parsons, in the prime of his driving career in the mid-1970s, took time for the Arkansas youngster and his father, sharing advice over lunch in his hometown of Ellerbe, North Carolina.

Talk about a follow-through. Martin, 57, joined Parsons among the five chosen for induction in the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s Class of 2017.

“It hasn’t soaked in yet,” Martin said by telephone Wednesday after the Hall’s announcement. “I didn’t expect it. It is, by far, the crown jewel of my career and I’m so grateful for the people that helped me get there.”

Martin wasn’t in Charlotte to hear his name called; instead, he was on his way to Indianapolis, reasoning that he wouldn’t be among the five inductees this year. Martin was named on 57 percent of the voting panel’s ballots, third-most among the 20 nominees. Still, he took the unexpected nature of being selected to heart, saying, “If I would’ve been on the voting panel, I would’ve probably voted another way.”

Martin’s credentials — both his success and his longevity across four decades in NASCAR competition — eventually won out in just his second year on the ballot. Martin won 40 times in NASCAR’s top division and combined for 56 more victories in its other two national series.

But Martin acknowledged the gaps in his resume, those that he came heart-wrenchingly close to achieving. Among those were his five runner-up finishes in the championship standings and his 0-for-29 career streak in the Daytona 500, the sport’s most prestigious race.

After Wednesday’s accomplishment, Martin said that Hall of Fame induction fills any potential voids.

“Look, I don’t have a Daytona 500 trophy and I don’t have a championship trophy, and I said many times that when people would complain about my not having one of those, I would ask the question: ‘How would my life be different if I had one?’ ” Martin said. “And I truly believe that my life would not be very different. But my life will be different from now on because I’m in that Hall, because that is my crown jewel.

“That speaks of not one year worth of success, not one great achievement, but a body of work, and that’s what I’m proud of.”

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (May 26, 2016) — NASCAR^® is collaborating with Academy Award-winning director Steven Soderbergh on a feature film entitled Logan Lucky, starring Channing Tatum alongside Katherine Heigl, Daniel Craig, Riley Keough, Adam Driver and Seth MacFarlane. Depicting a theoretical heist at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the project will mark Soderbergh’s first feature film since announcing his retirement from the film industry in 2013. Soderbergh, who also directed heist film Ocean’s Eleven, is best known for his work on the critically acclaimed Traffic and Erin Brockovich, which garnered him two Oscar nominations and the accolade of Best Director.

This will not be Tatum’s first experience working with NASCAR or Soderbergh. He and 22 Jump Street co-star Jonah Hill served as grand marshals for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series™ Pocono 400 in 2014, while Tatum and Soderbergh previously teamed up for the Magic Mike films, Haywire and the 2013 thriller Side Effects, which was the most recent film project led by the acclaimed director.

“We are excited to work with Steven, Channing and all of Logan Lucky’s incredible cast and producers,” said Zane Stoddard, NASCAR vice president of entertainment marketing and content development. “It’s a big-hearted, fun story that showcases NASCAR and Charlotte Motor Speedway as the world-class sports entertainment property and venue that they are, much like the Bellagio in Steven’s Ocean’s Eleven.”

Logan Lucky is tentatively scheduled for release in Fall 2017. Mark Johnson, Gregory Jacobs and Reid Carolin are producing. Zane Stoddard is executive producing for NASCAR.

Pre-production filming will begin this weekend at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca-Cola 600, which airs live on FOX at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday, May 29.

CONCORD, N.C. – Martin Truex Jr. crashed a Ford party on Thursday night, winning the pole for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway (6 p.m. ET, FOX, PRN, Sirius XM NASCAR Radio).

With his team making adjustments to the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota throughout the qualifying session, Truex saved his best lap for the round that counted, covering the 1.5-mile distance in 28.077 seconds (192.328 mph) to edge Team Penske Ford driver Joey Logano (192.007 mph) by .047 seconds for the top starting spot in NASCAR’s longest race.

The Coors Light Pole Award was Truex’s second of the season and the ninth of his career. Both of the New Jersey driver’s poles this year have come on 1.5-mile tracks, the previous one at Kansas Speedway earlier this month.

“We really had to work pretty hard for it today,” said Truex, whose lap in the final round of qualifying was .27 seconds faster than his fastest practice lap. “It was just one of those Charlotte deals where the track was continuously changing.

“We were just chasing the race track and changing the car and really never got it close to right until that last run. I’m really just proud of the effort and proud of all my guys for that. It feels good – 600 miles, that first pit stall (the pole winner’s prerogative) … We’re going to be on pit road a lot on Sunday night, and that’s certainly going to be an advantage.

“Hopefully, we can take advantage of it and make it work for us.”

Logano led both the first and second rounds but couldn’t match Truex’s top speed in the third and final session.

“I got a little bit tight landing in (Turn) 1 and then a little bit free off (the corner),” Logano said. “It wasn’t much. And then (Turns) 3 and 4, I actually thought was a pretty good corner.

“So I would say most of it was down in 1 and 2 – probably at landing and through the center is where I lost most of my momentum. It’s not much. Half-a-tenth of a second doesn’t take long.”

Logano was the best of the Ford drivers, who held three of the four top spots in the first round of knockout qualifying and swept the top four in the second. In the final round, Fords were second, third and fifth.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. qualified third at 191.428 mph, followed by Denny Hamlin (191.388 mph) and Brad Keselowski (190.968 mph). Joining Stenhouse in the top 10 were his Roush Fenway Racing teammates Greg Biffle (sixth) and Trevor Bayne (10th), marking the first time since the April race at Texas in 2014 that three RFR cars have made the final round of knockout qualifying.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start 25th after failing to advance past the first round by .014 seconds. Matt Kenseth (27th), Austin Dillon (28th) and Kasey Kahne (29th) also will have to come from deep in the field after disappointing efforts in time trials.

Kurt Busch, who topped the speed chart in opening practice with the fastest lap of the day (192.843 mph), will start 13th after failing to make the final round by .08 seconds.

CONCORD, N.C. — Richard Childress has many titles to Ty Dillon: Team owner, hunting buddy, grandfather.

And now NASCAR Hall of Famer, thanks to a moment that Dillon and his family — including brother and fellow driver Austin — weren’t expecting Wednesday.

“I was actually standing with my mom when I got a text message, ‘Congratulations to your grandfather,'” Dillon said on Thursday during a media availability at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “We were like, ‘No way!’ We weren’t even expecting this year. I’m so happy for him.”

Childress is part of the five-person 2017 NASCAR Hall of Fame class that was unveiled Wednesday. Joining Childress in the Hall will be Rick Hendrick, Mark Martin, Raymond Parks and Benny Parsons. H. Clay Earles was named the recipient of the Landmark Award for Outstanding Contributions to NASCAR.

“I think at first, I called him probably five minutes after I found out — I’m sure he was getting all kinds of calls — it seemed like it hadn’t set in for him yet,” Dillon said of his first communication with his grandfather after learning Childress had made the Hall of Fame. “He’s a hard worker so he’s always thinking about what’s going on next.

“I saw him this morning (at an appearance at Bass Pro Shops). First thing I did was just give him a big hug because I was proud of him. He’s very happy today and excited, and it’s well-deserved.”

Childress, 70, began his career as a driver, making his first NASCAR start in 1969, and he went on to score six top-five finishes and 76 top-10 finishes over 12 years and 285 starts. He formed Richard Childress Racing in 1969 and eventually teamed with NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt for six championships.

In his storied history as an owner, Childress is the first to have owner championships in all three NASCAR national series, and his 11 driver championships are second all-time. RCR has 212 NASCAR national series victories: 105 wins in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, 76 wins in the NASCAR XFINITY Series and 31 wins in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.

The bond Dillon and Childress share is much more than that of your typical grandfather and grandson.

“He’s my hero and glad that I get to spend time with him not only in our sport but every day at the shop and away from it, when we’re hunting and hanging out with family,” Dillon said.

RCR currently fields Chevrolets for three full-time teams in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (Austin Dillon in the No. 3, Paul Menard in the No. 27 and Ryan Newman in the No. 31) and four full-time teams in the NASCAR XFINITY Series (Menard/Dillon primarily in the No. 2, Ty Dillon in the No. 3, Brandon Jones in the No. 33 and Brendan Gaughan in the No. 62).

“He’s such a focused individual about making this race team great again.” Ty Dillon said. “I think this is a moment that is going to be big for him for feeling like he’s finally made it. He’s the first one at the shop every single day and the last one to leave. Working hard like he did way back when he had a $20 race car. I think it’s finally a moment for him to sit back and realize what he’s accomplished and hopefully it continues to set in for the rest of the week.”

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Three team owners accounting for 18 premier series titles and 349 victories in NASCAR’s top series headline the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s class of 2017.

Raymond Parks, Richard Childress and Rick Hendrick were named, along with drivers Mark Martin and Benny Parsons, Wednesday. NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France made the announcement in the Hall of Fame’s Great Hall.

Parks, Childress, Hendrick and Parsons have been among the nominees on all eight previous Hall of Fame ballots. Martin was nominated for the first time this past year.

“That’s a load off my mind; I feel relieved, totally,” Vi Parks, widow of Raymond Parks, said afterward.

“It was a long time coming and I just wish he were here to appreciate it. It’s just a great feeling. NASCAR meant so much to Raymond. He loved racing, he loved to be with the people; he always went as long as his health would allow him to go.”

Parks, who passed away in 2010, became the first championship-winning team owner in 1949 when his driver, Red Byron, won what was then known as the Strictly Stock division.

A successful Atlanta businessman who was responsible for helping NASCAR founder Bill France Sr. move forward with the formation of the sanctioning body, Parks and Byron marched to NASCAR’s first Modified title as well.

Childress won six premier series titles with driver Dale Earnhardt, a member of the inaugural Hall of Fame class inducted in 2010. His Richard Childress Racing organization, located in Welcome, N.C., has earned championships in NASCAR’s XFINITY and Camping World Truck Series as well.

“I really didn’t expect to get in because I was told the only way you’re going to get in is to retire or be deceased,” Childress said via telephone Wednesday evening. “I sure like the first one better … I haven’t gotten plans to retire yet either.

“Just to be in there with the class that I’m in, it’s unbelievable.”

Often during speaking engagements, Childress said he would tell the crowd, “Only in America could a kid with a $20 race car and a dream be here speaking to a group like this today,” a reference to his humble beginnings as a young racer.

“Now I can say only in America could a kid with a dream be in the NACAR Hall of Fame,” he said.

Hendrick Motorsports drivers have won 11 premier series titles and 242 races. And the team owner said he has no plans for slowing down.

“You get tired to the point your body is telling you that you need to slow down,” Hendrick said, “but all the people that have worked there that are working there now … you want to keep it going; you want to see it continue.

“It’s kind of like when you build something and the momentum is there and you want to keep it going. When you sign a young guy like Chase Elliott, you (are) kind of committed to keep it rolling. You want to see Jimmie (Johnson) win his seventh (championship); you want to see Chase win his first, (Dale) Earnhardt (Jr.) win one, Kasey (Kahne) … .

“I’d love to see the 250 wins and maybe end up with another Cup championship or two. You know I’m super competitive; I don’t want to just go show up, I want to be competitive.

“We’ve accomplished so much. I’m very appreciative of where we are but the competitive side in me and with the team we have we want more. You just have to go dig every day.”

In addition to the five Hall of Fame inductees, Martinsville (Va.) Speedway track founder H. Clay Earles was selected as the recipient of the 2017 Landmark Award for Outstanding Achievement in NASCAR.

Mark Martin will be one of 20 people considered for induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame when the Voting Panel convenes in Charlotte on Wednesday to determine the 2017 class. (TV coverage: NBCSN, 5 p.m. ET)

Three of those on the ballot are former premier series champions — Red Byron, NASCAR’s first Strictly Stock champion in 1949; Benny Parsons, the 1973 winner who went on to enjoy a successful second career in the broadcast booth; and Alan Kulwicki, killed in a plane crash just four-and-a-half months after capturing the 1992 crown.

There was no championship trophy for Martin, who retired from competition at the end of the 2013 season. But that doesn’t diminish the accomplishments the Batesville, Arkansas, native garnered during a career that spanned more than three decades.

Martin, 57, won 40 times in the premier series, with victories coming at 21 different tracks.

He finished 10th or better 453 times, in more than half of his 882 career starts. He also won 56 poles.

In the battle for the championship, Martin placed second five times, a mark he shares with current Hall of Fame member Bobby Allison, and he scored 17 top-10 points finishes during his career.

“It makes me proud I was able to be as successful as I was and grateful for the opportunities I had,” Martin told Little Rock, Arkansas, radio station KABZ-FM recently. “To be real honest I didn’t enjoy a … significant part of my career because I was trying so hard to get that championship because I wanted it, and even more than that, the people who supported me wanted it for me so badly. I saw time running out.

“I spent too much of my time focused on that and not enjoying the opportunities I had. Today, when I look back on it I wish I hadn’t done that.”

Martin lost the 1990 title by 26 points to Dale Earnhardt and finished second to the Richard Childress Racing driver again four years later. Other runner-up finishes through the years came against Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart and Jimmie Johnson.

“My life would not be different one bit had I won one of those or not,” Martin said. “I had a great career. … I don’t think it would have changed a thing in my life had I won one of those trophies. I was very close. I got beat by only four of the greatest of all time in NASCAR in my opinion. …

“I’m not embarrassed.”

Earnhardt was one of five members inducted into the Hall’s inaugural class in 2010. Gordon, a four-time series champion with 93 career victories, retired from driving at the end of 2015 and won’t be eligible for Hall of Fame consideration until 2018 and possible induction until ’19.

Stewart, winner of three premier series titles and co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing, will cease to compete full time in the series following the 2016 season. Johnson is a six-time champion and boasts 77 career wins, including two thus far this season.

In addition to his premier series exploits, Martin held the XFINITY Series record for career wins for 14 years and is also a seven-time winner in the Camping World Truck Series.

It is his second consecutive appearance on the Hall of Fame ballot.

First-year nominees for the 2017 ballot are former Camping World Truck Series champion Ron Hornaday Jr., team co-owner Jack Roush, driver Ricky Rudd, noted crew chief and engine builder Waddell Wilson and broadcaster Ken Squier.

Rounding out the list of nominees are Buddy Baker, Richard Childress, Ray Evernham, Ray Fox, Rick Hendrick, Harry Hyde, Hershel McGriff, Raymond Parks, Larry Phillips, Mike Stefanik and Robert Yates.

Also to be determined by the Voting Panel is the 2017 recipient of the Landmark Award, which recognizes outstanding contributions to NASCAR. The five nominees are Martinsville Speedway track founder H. Clay Earles, driver Janet Guthrie, team owner Raymond Parks, former RJ Reynolds executive Ralph Seagraves and Squier.

The Voting Panel is scheduled to begin the selection process Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. ET at the Charlotte Convention Center.

The announcement of those chosen will take place in the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s Great Hall (5 p.m. ET, NBCSN). NASCAR.com will also live stream the event: You can watch it live here.

NASCAR Hall of Fame Class, Class of 2017

Despite a legendary career as one of the best drivers of his era, Mark Martin never won a championship in NASCAR’s premier series. He came incredibly close on a number of occasions — finishing second in the standings five times.

Born: Jan. 9, 1959
Hometown: Batesville, Arkansas

Premier Series Stats
Competed: 1981-2013
Starts: 882
Wins: 40
Poles: 56

In 1990, Martin finished 26 points behind Dale Earnhardt, his closest run at the championship. He set career highs for wins (seven), top-five finishes (22) and laps led (1,730) in 1998, but was left with another second-place finish, this time to Jeff Gordon. He also finished second in 1994, 2002 and ’09.

Over the course of his 33-year premier series career, Martin compiled 40 wins (17th all time) and 61 runner-up finishes (sixth) in 882 starts (fifth). His 56 career poles rank seventh on the all-time list.

Martin saw success at every level of NASCAR. He won 49 times in the NASCAR XFINITY Series, holding the series wins record for 14 years. He retired with 96 wins across NASCAR’s three national series, sixth on the all-time list.

NASCAR Hall of Fame, Class of 2017

Benny Parsons, a Wilkes County, North Carolina, native who called Detroit home after driving a taxi for a living during his years in the northern city, won the 1973 NASCAR premier series championship in one of the most dramatic fashions in series history.

Born: July 12, 1941
Died: Jan. 16, 2007
Hometown: Ellerbe, North Carolina

Championship
Premier: 1973

Premier Series Stats
Competed: 1964-88
Starts: 526
Wins: 21
Poles: 20

Parsons could be called an everyman champion: winning enough to be called one of the sport’s stars but nearly always finishing well when he wasn’t able to reach Victory Lane. He won 21 times in 526 career starts but finished among the top 10 283 times — a 54 percent ratio.

One of Parsons’ biggest victories came in the 1975 Daytona 500. He also was the first driver to qualify a stock car at more than 200 mph (200.176) in 1982 at Talladega Superspeedway. He was named one of NASCAR’s 50 Greatest Drivers in 1998.

Parsons also was known as a voice of the sport making a seamless transition to television following his NASCAR career. He was a commentator for NBC and TNT until his passing in 2007, at age 65.
