BMW Team RLL has set themselves up well for tomorrow's ALMS Northeast Grand Prix at Lime Rock by qualifying in the 1 and 2 spots on the starting grid for tomorrow.

Joey Hand took pole position with the No. 56 BMW M3 GT car with a 50.925 second lap (each lap is 1.474 miles). Not only was this the fastest lap during qualifying, but it was also a new qualifying lap record.

BMW's No. 55 M3 qualified second under the piloting of Dirk Werner with a 51.179 lap.

Be sure to catch the race live on ESPN3.com tomorrow at 2PM ET or via replay on ESPN2 on Sunday from 1-3PM ET. The race will span 2 3/4 hours.

BMW is currently on top of the GT class point standings following wins at the 12 Hours of Sebring and Long Beach races, the first two ALMS races of this year.
