Though Burton's won three other poles this season, it's the first time he's won the Keystone Light Pole award. Burton just turned 21 on August 6th, so he's no longer limited to the 21 means 21 award.
Veteran Brendan Gaughan, whose lap of 184.120 also beat Coulter's record, sits on the outside pole, with defending Truck Series champ James Buescher starting third. Max Gresham earned the best starting position of his career with his fourth-place lap, and Ty Dillon rolls off the grid fifth.
