Suzuki's Ben Spies won the Superstock pole at Daytona on Wednesday. Spies won the pole by setting his best time on a lap that barely began before the final checkered flag flew. Spies spoiled what would have been an all-Yamaha front row.
His lap time of 1:48.203 was the fastest Superstock time ever, breaking Jason Pridmore's previous lap record of 1:51.567. The time was also quicker than Ben Bostrom's pole time from '03. This is the first race since the Superstock class moved from 750 to 1000ccs.
Spies had a machine problem as time was running out in the session when he pulled behind the pit wall to switch machines. At one point late in the hour Spies was out of the top ten.
Yamaha's Jason DiSalvo was second, having set his best time early in the session.
His teammate, Jamie Hacking, set third best time despite severe pain from a morning crash.
Larry Pegram crashed in turn one but walked away from the crash.
