For the second straight week, Chase Briscoe will lead the NASCAR Cup Series field to the green flag.
Briscoe won the pole for Sunday's Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway, beating out his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate in Denny Hamlin for the top spot.
It's the third pole of the season for Briscoe, who also won the pole for the season-opening Daytona 500 and last week's Coca-Cola 600.
That's back-to-back #BuschLightPole Awards for @chasebriscoe!
