Garth Tander will start today’s 250km opening race at the Clipsal 500 from pole position.
His 1:22.6s lap in the top 10 shootout saw him end the session 0.2s clear of Jamie Whincup, after the TeamVodafone driver lost crucial time in the opening sector of his lap.
Lee Holdsworth and Rick Kelly complete a Holden lock-out of the first two rows, while Mark Winterbottom, Shane van Gisbergen, Will Davison, James Courtney and Jason Bright follow.
Paul Dumbrell was the last man out in the session after topping qualifying this morning, and appeared set for the first two rows before an off at the final corner.
Race 3 of the V8 Supercars Championship will kick off at 14:35.
