Another pole for Jeff Gordon

NASCAR Nextel Cup Series driver Jeff Gordon put his car in a good position to finally win a race at Phoenix International Raceway.
He won the pole, the third of his career at Phoenix International Raceway, and will start first in the Cup race Saturday night.
But Gordon has yet to win a race at Phoenix, one of the few tracks he is winless at.
"I've been on the pole here. We've been fast here. We've been consistent here. We've been everything but in victory lane here," said Gordon, driver of the No. 24 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. "We're just going to work just as hard as we can -- the same as we do everywhere and I'm going to try not to make the mistake we made last week because I felt like we had a good shot at winning last week in Texas and I blew that one. But as long as this team continues to give me the race cars that they're giving me right now and the effort they're giving me, then we're going to win races."
In 16 starts at Phoenix, Gordon has seven top-five and 13 top-10 finishes, but no wins.
"And I would love it if it would come here," Gordon said. "I would love to finally be able to get this one checked off our list so I don't have to hear that question again."
