Kevin Harvick - Chase Champion

[The Nac]

So dad's been a NASCAR fan as long as I can remember, and he was a big Earnhardt fan when I was growing up. Ever since Harvick drove his car (or in his spot, however it went) dad has been a Harvick fan.

Now, I got burnt when Harvick won the Dayton and was convinced it was his year, putting down a $20 futures bet for him to win the Chase. Which, as we all know, didn't happen.

However, this year, I decided to try again after Harvick won that shootout and then finished well in the Daytona again.

I feel good about Kevin's chances today seeing as he's in the pole position. Better than having to play catchup the whole day, which he usually does lol GO HARVICK!

Kennybo, you're right. Harvick needs to be careful today and keep an eye out for #20. Still, hope he turns in another solid performance for my Dad.

I think my favourite on here is Jr. He starts 17th and his car has been racing better lately. All those top 10's are going to get him to a win eventually. Today could very well be that day.
