John Wes Townley gave Venturini Motorsports what they were looking for, at least for now. Townley, in the No. 15 Zaxby's Toyota, won the Menards Pole Award presented by Ansell for Saturday's 50th running of the Lucas Oil 200 presented by MAVTV American Real at Daytona Int'l Speedway. It was Townley's career-first pole award in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards.
Townley circled the 2.5-mile superspeedway in 49.638 seconds, for an average speed of 181.313 mph.

"The car is working very well in the draft too, so I think it'll hold up very well in the race."
Milka Duno, in the No. 35 Cantv-Milka Way Toyota, qualified a career-best second at 1...
