LOUDON, N.H. -- Carl Edwards had another hard race to the finish against Matt Kenseth. The Joe Gibbs Racing teammates had skipped the track for the bike path, and what Edwards thought would be a leisurely ride between colleagues turned into a competitive duel on two wheels.It was a pretty hard ride, said Edwards, laughing.The 44-year-old Kenseth flashed the kind of speed that made Edwards wonder how he continued to turn back the clock on all modes of transport.Hes somehow figured out how to age backward now, said the 37-year-old Edwards. Hes getting faster, hes getting stronger, hes figured something out here for sure and it gives guys like me hope, you know?Kenseth has certainly figured out New Hampshire Motor Speedway since making the move in 2013 to Joe Gibbs Racing. Winless in 26 career starts at the track driving for Jack Roush, Kenseth has three wins at New Hampshire since `13 and has won the last two races here.He had a bit of luck to win the fall 2015 race when leader Kevin Harvicks gamble to stretch his fuel backfired and Kenseth took the lead to clinch his spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. His first New Hampshire win of this season came under similar circumstances. Martin Truex Jr. and Kyle Busch each led more than 120 laps before faltering over the final 75 laps, paving the way for Kenseth to stretch his Magic Mile win streak.I think a lot of it has to do with, obviously the equipment and the people working on it, and all that stuff, but its hard to figure out sometimes, Kenseth said. This used to be probably one of my worst tracks on the circuit, honestly, and now it seems like its been one of our best. That doesnt mean its going to be this week, but it has been in recent past.Edwards joked before Fridays qualifying session that hed like to steal some tips from Kenseth and crew chief Jason Ratcliff and try and earn his own win at the track.I can lean on that and look at that and understand what he does, Edwards said.Edwards then turned the fastest lap and won the pole; Kenseth starts eighth. Edwards won the pole for the third time in the last four New Hampshire races, his sixth pole of the season, but has failed to end the race the same way he started -- in first.Kenseth, the 2003 NASCAR champion, had a season more solid than spectacular with two wins, but just four top-five finishes. He had 12 top-fives and five wins last season. Martin Truex Jr. earned a spot in the next round of the Chase with a win in the playoff opener last week at Chicagoland Speedway.The 16-driver Chase field will be cut to 12 after next weeks race at Dover International Speedway. Kenseth is seventh in the standings after one race and has the kind of resume that would suggest he can survive to the next round even without a victory over the next two races.But last seasons stunning knockout of Jimmie Johnson at Dover is a reminder that win-and-in beats hoping for the best. Johnson entered Dover fifth in the standings and, with 10 career wins at Dover, seemed a lock to advance. His No. 48 Chevrolet was forced off the track for 36 laps with a torn rear axle seal and he was eliminated from contention.Kenseth, with 38 career wins, knows time is of the essence for another title shot. Kenseth said he had no immediate plans to follow fellow 40-something NASCAR champions Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart into retirement.I havent put a ton of thought into it, Kenseth said. I realize there are more years of racing behind me then there are in front of me. But I feel great, I feel like were running good. Im having a lot of fun. I dont have any plans to quit in the near future.Here are other items of note from Saturday at New Hampshire:FAST PRACTICE: Kyle Larson turned the fastest laps in his No. 42 Chevrolet in each of the two Sprint Cup practices. He topped the second session with a lap of 132.577 mph and posted the fastest laps in practice for all sessions heading into Sundays race.Larson topped the morning session with 132.186.Larson should hope that translates into success in Sundays race. He finished 18th in the Chase opener and Chicagoland and is 15th in the standings.Our short run speed is really good, Larson said.Edwards had the best consecutive 10-lap average in the second session, with an average speed of 131.663.Chase drivers took the top seven spots on the speed chart over a 10-lap average and 13 of 15 spots overall. Chevrolet drivers took six of the top 12 spots. Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic . On June 12, just as the sun sets on the magnificent historical city of Sao Paulo the inventors, innovators and purveyors of “joga bonitowill” open their campaign. The opponent, Croatia and all its football might and will. As opposites do attract we are set for a corker of an opener. Cheap Adidas Hockey Jerseys . Fred Couples, captain of the U.S. side, put it all into perspective. "We know whos in charge," he said. http://www.cheapjerseysnhladidas.com/ . And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. Discount Adidas Hockey Jerseys . He was followed closely by David Clarkson, donning red, seconds later. Clarksons actions one night earlier, leaping off the bench in defence of Kessel during a pre-season game against the Buffalo Sabres, will cost him the first 10 games of the regular season. Adidas NHL Jerseys China . The move comes after the Canadiens were approached by the Buffalo Sabres for permission to speak to Dudley - a former Sabres player and head coach. "The Sabres called for permission and I appreciate that, Im flattered, Dudley told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun of ESPN. OAKLAND, Calif. -- Al Attles made all eight of his field-goal tries for 17 points for the Philadelphia Warriors during Wilt Chamberlains 100-point game on March 2, 1962. Attles coached Rick Barry the day he scored 64 against Portland on March 26, 1974.He watched with a smile high above the Oracle Arena floor on Monday night as Klay Thompson scored an NBA season-high and career-best 60 points in three quarters for the Golden State Warriors in a 142-106 win against Indiana -- the highest Warriors scoring performance since Barrys.Not that you will ever find Attles playing favorites when it comes to special games by individual players. Dont even try. He coached the Warriors to their first championship since moving West in 1975, then Golden State won again 40 years later in 2015.Ive seen a 100-point game, Attles said from his seat during a late timeout. Rick was such a great player and he cared about winning. In order to score the number of points he scored you have to have help from your teammates. I try to look at them individually because once you start comparing, someone is always going to be No. 2. Lets give him his credit.Attles joked he passed to Chamberlain for all those points. He actually had six assiists, while Guy Rodgers had 20 of the teams 39 overall in the 169-147 win against the Knicks at Hershey, Pennsylvania.ddddddddddddI think 50, Attles said with a chuckle of his assists total in the record-setter. I dont know. Guess what? We won the game. Thats all that matters.While Attles -- who is in his 57th year with the Warriors and recently celebrated his 80th birthday with extra-large cupcakes at Oracle -- was close with Chamberlain, when people ask about the 100-point performance, he still keeps it separate from other sensational showings like the onslaught by Thompson in just 29 minutes and three quarters against the Pacers.Because I played with Wilt, people always ask, `What do you think about Wilt scoring 100 points? I say, `Give him credit for what he did then, said Attles, now a community ambassador for the franchise in regular attendance at games.Its like apples and oranges. Theyre both good fruit. Its a matter of what you like. I was very close to Wilt, but you have to enjoy what they did that night. I enjoy any great performance. Im very happy to be here tonight. ' ' '
