Dave Connolly Industrial Distribution Group Chevrolet Cobalt

Las Vegas, Friday: Before the second round of qualifying Friday night, Dave Connolly predicted the performance of the Skull Gear Chevy Cobalt would improve -- and it did.  He left The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway second after a 6.727-second effort in the ACDelco Las Vegas Nationals.

"I told you we'd step up," he said after moving from third into the runner-up position. "It was nice to see the new car running good this weekend.  The testing we did a couple of days ago in Tucson has really paid off.  The car's performance picked up in the first half of the track.

"We were happy with that run."
