Stewart turned a lap of 38.591 seconds at 186.572 mph on the 2-mile oval.
“I’m not a very good qualifier, normally, so to be this close to the pole is a really good run for the Office Depot/Old Spice team,” said Stewart, who won at Michigan in June 2000. “They’ve been doing an awesome job. We felt like we’ve been a little bit behind here recently. But we’re not way behind, obviously, today. We’re making gains in the right direction. I’m really appreciative of that.

He is not fazed at all by the delicate left and right-hand turns, the back straightaway “bus stop” chicane or even the stock car oddity of right-side entrance pit stops.
“Watkins Glen is a unique venue and a fun place to compete,” said Newman, driver of the No. 39 U.S. Army Chevrolet. “I really like the layout because you can attack the course. You can pass at the Glen and all of us drivers like a facility where you can pass. Our other road course track — Infineon Raceway — is more of a technical and finesse circuit.”
