Driving the No. 78 Chevrolet, Kurt Busch set the fastest time in the second practice session for the Camping World RV 301 held at New Hampshire Motor Speedway while Brian Vickers was quickest in the last one.
Busch drove around the one-mile, low-banked oval at the average speed of 133.497 mph.
Matt Kenseth was second ahead of Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer, Carl Edwards and Jimmie Johnson who will have to start 43rd and last on Sunday due to a technical infraction in qualifying.
Brian Vickers was quickest in the third and last practice session, setting a speed of 133.417 mph in the No. 55 Toyota.
Vickers, ineligible for driver points in the Sprint Cup series, beat Dale Earnhardt Jr., Matt Kenseth, Bowyer, Johnson and Jeff Gordon.
Brad Keselowski, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion and driver for Penske Racing will start from pole position at 1pm Sunday, having set the fastest time in qualification at the speed of 135.922 mph in the No. 2 Ford.
New Hampshire has typically been a good track for Keselowski. In the last three visits to the track, his worst showing was sixth place. He fell just short of winning in the second race at the track in 2011, coming in second.
