No one's catching Gordon

| | Comments (0) |

Jeff Gordon has the pole as qualifying for the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series race proceeds at California Speedway.
Juan Pablo Montoya, who has the fastest qualifying time for a rookie, said he ran an almost perfect lap and beating Gordon was going to be tough.
"Maybe there was a little bit more in it, but I don't know how much more," Montoya said. "Jeff Gordon's lap was awesome. It's great to see the team doing well."
Montoya looks like he has a top-10 spot and he added that with his experience, it's a good qualifying run.
"I thought I could run a flat and I did," Montoya said. "For the experience that I have at the moment, that's pretty good. I didn't have much left in the car, maybe a tenth or so, but it was a really good lap."
