Chris Green scored his first career Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge pole, leading a McLaren 570S GT4 sweep of the front row for this afternoon’s Canadian Tire Motorsport Park 120.

Green reeled off a fast lap of 1:24.668 in his No. 69 Motorsport In Action McLaren to deny Paul Holton his third consecutive Continental Tire Challenge pole, in the No. 76 C360R McLaren.

It marked another dominant qualifying effort for the British manufacturer, with three McLarens in the top-six in the GS class.

Green will share driving duties in the two-hour race with Jesse Lazare.

Dylan Murcott qualified third in the No. 28 RS1 Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport MR, with Jack Roush Jr. set to start fourth in the No. 59 KohR Motorsports Ford Mustng GT4, which he will co-drive with reigning series champion Scott Maxwell this weekend.

Derek Jones, meanwhile, claimed pole in ST, taking his No. 73 MINI JCW to a quick lap of 1:31.721.

Jones edged out the No. 84 BimmerWorld BMW 328i of Tyler Cooke by 0.154 seconds, with the class points-leading No. 56 Murillo Racing Porsche Cayman of Jeff Mosing set to start third.
