FONTANA, Calif. -- The wave of success Jamie McMurray rode from coast to coast hasn't broken yet.

Fresh from his dramatic victory in last Sunday's Daytona 500, McMurray put his No. 1 Chevrolet on the pole during Friday's qualifying session at Auto Club Speedway.

With a lap at 183.744 mph (39.185 seconds), McMurray edged Earnhardt Ganassi Racing teammate Juan Pablo Montoya (183.477 mph) for the top starting spot in Sunday's Auto Club 500, the second points race of the Sprint Cup season.
