KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Joey Logano drove his No. 22 Ford to a fast lap of 192.397 mph Friday, easily besting the speed of Kasey Kahne and winning the pole for Saturday night's Sprint Cup race.

The winner of last fall's Chase race at Kansas, Logano cruised to his 12th career pole but first on the fast 1 1/2-mile track near downtown Kansas City.
