11:55 a.m. ET — Jet dryers are on the track, and because of that, this is hereby declared a Juan Montoya joke-free zone.

8:03 a.m. ET — The track is getting pounded by a thunderstorm for the moment, but clouds are expected to decrease by the start of the race. It’s going to be a hot one, with temperatures forecast for the high 80s.

7:31 a.m. ET — Jeff Gordon was once called Wonder Boy, and now he’s Old Man River. Jeff Gordon’s top qualfiying effort for the Aaron’s 499 marked the 20th straight season he’d won a Cup pole position. That ties NASCAR Hall of Fame member David Pearson for the longest such streak in history.

It’s the 71st pole of Gordon’s career, third on the all-time list.

Alongside Gordon on the front row will be AJ Allmendinger, followed by Marcos Ambrose, Aric Almirola and Kasey Kahne in the top five. Greg Biffle, Carl Edwards, Tony Stewart, Michael Waltrip and Matt Kenseth are sixth through 10th.

J.J. Yeley failed to qualify for the event.
