Shane van Gisbergen wins the pole for Cup Series race in downtown Chicago
CHICAGO (AP) — When it comes to NASCAR's street course in downtown Chicago, there is Shane van Gisbergen, and then there is everyone else. Van Gisbergen has won the pole for Sunday's Grant Park 165. The 36-year-old New Zealander turned a lap at 88.338 mph on a tricky 2.2-mile course that was made more treacherous by temperatures in the 90s Fahrenheit on Saturday. Advertisement 'Practice wasn't that great for us, but when we went out for qualifying, the car felt really good,' van Gisbergen said. 'We turned in two pretty good laps.' The Trackhouse Racing driver will be joined on the front row by Michael McDowell, who grabbed the second slot at 87.879 mph. Carson Hocevar (87.824 mph), Tyler Reddick (87.779 mph) and Chase Briscoe (87.734 mph) rounded out the top five. McDowell is one of three drivers who finished in the top 10 in the first two races in downtown Chicago. 'Our car's in the game,' he said. 'Tomorrow will be a mixed bag with potential weather in and out. So a lot of variables to go out there and navigate.' Advertisement Van Gisbergen, a three-time champion in Australia's Supercars, also was on the pole for Saturday's Xfinity Series race. 'I learned a lot in the Xfinity Series car this morning, and that just gives you a great leg up for the Cup car,' he said. 'I think it's great running both cars, it certainly helps.' Just two years ago, van Gisbergen raced to a historic victory in a rainy first edition of NASCAR's downtown Chicago experiment. Making the most of his extensive street racing experience, he became the first driver to win his Cup Series debut since Johnny Rutherford in the second qualifying race at Daytona in 1963. He won Chicago's Xfinity Series stop last year and the first stage in the Cup race before he was knocked out by a crash. Advertisement Katherine Legge became the first woman to qualify for the Cup race in downtown Chicago when she turned a lap of 85.744 mph, knocking Corey Heim out of the field. 'We would have been a lot faster, I think, had I not kept nicking the wall,' Legge said. "I've given my crew a lot of work to do from that, but we had to keep pushing to put it in the show. I'm really proud of this team, and I'm very much looking forward to tomorrow.' ___ AP auto racing:

Bay Area high school students build solar-powered car to compete at Texas Motor Speedway
A team of Mountain View High School students is building a completely solar-powered car in order to compete on a Texas racetrack this July. In the home stretch of the project, Ryan Liu, a rising senior at MVHS, takes a moment to appreciate the months and months of work that he and his Garage 803 Racing peers have put into the project. "To be able to watch everything come together, I think it's really been a wonderful experience," he said. Come race time, several members of the team will take turns behind the wheel of the vehicle, driving it under the hot sun along the Texas Motor Speedway. The goal is to drive as many miles as they can over the course of four days. "The temperatures are going to be very high, so we are going to be taking shifts," Liu said. They'll be racing towards the finish line against 26 other teams from other high schools throughout the country. "Hopefully we'll be able to finish that race," said Tyler Wang, another member of the team. But the big picture of the project – academic curiosity – goes well beyond the finish line. "Getting introduced to more complicated and advanced topics in engineering that you wouldn't usually get exposed to in the normal high school curriculum," Wang said. "All of us want to go into some sort of STEM field, some sort of engineering field," Liu said. So, this project is just the beginning for these future innovators. "I think the automotive field is very interesting right now," Liu said. "It's a very interesting position as we try to find more alternative sources." "I'd probably like to get into motorsports," Wang said. "I've always loved racing, and I think it's a good way to use my engineering major, hopefully." Aside from the tangible lessons that are reinforced by intellectual and physical challenges on the daily, the students are getting a crash course in the age-old lesson of if you believe it, you can achieve it. "If you asked me last year, I would never think this would have been possible," Liu said. "Just to see it in front of you. It's a wonderful feeling." "If you have something that you want to do and you really put your mind to it and take action on it, I think that you can pretty much do anything," Wang said. The 32nd Annual Solar Car Challenge race begins on July 20.
