Stewart-Haas driver Danica Patrick has become the first woman in history to earn a pole position in the NASCAR Sprint Cup series. She drove around the Daytona International Speedway in a time of 45.817 seconds, using her new Chevrolet SS NASCAR Sprint Cup racer.
Speaking of new Chevrolets, the bowtie brand used this past weekend’s NASCAR season-opener, the Sprint Unlimited, to debut its new 2014 Chevy SS performance sedan. We can confirm the car gets a 6.2-liter V-8 rated at an estimated 415 horsepower, and which sends drive to the rear wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. Hopefully a manual will be offered as well.
