Pole may be the most the overrated thing in sports
At a place like Daytona or Talladega, it is overrated. While you can go straight from the front to the back in a half a lap at any race track, at these two you can go right back to the front in another half a lap....you go to the back in a place like martinsville or Dover or Bristol, you statistically have a better chance of wrecking than going from 1st to 35th and back to 1st...you never see it happen...

Maybe when there used to be 3 & 4-wide pack racing. It's not the same anymore. If you drop to the back it'll take laps and help to get back to the front.
