The 22-year-old is gaining confidence among the NASCAR heavyweights, saying "I really think a win is coming soon, maybe before the Chase starts.” That is very confident talk from a young driver surrounded by NASCAR superstars Joey Logano, Brad Keselowski, Jeff Gordon and Kurt Busch in the first five.

Logano, who has been a beast in qualifying laps all year long, led the way in the early going; that never deterred Larson however. "I knew we had a shot at the pole after the second round," Larson said. "I was nervous and I hit all three corners about as good as I could, so I was really excited about that."

Teammates Logano and Keselowski are making their 17th and 16th Top 10 start of this season, so neither is feeling disappointed despite not sitting the pole. "We push them to be better the first round," Logano said. "They push us to be better as we go into the third round. I'm getting better. We're able to see what we do differently, which helps us because one is good in one area and one is good in the other, so we can see both of that."
