Kevin Harvick is happy to get one more chance at the NASCAR playoffs. The 2014 Cup Series champion won't spend much time on nostalgia, knowing he's left a legacy of success and leadership at the track.
Harvick was a young racer with a bit of an edge when he first raced the Cup Series as the late Dale Earnhardt’s replacement at Richard Childress Racing in 2001. Harvick won in Atlanta just three weeks after Earnhardt’s fatal accident.
“I’m in heaven,” Harvick said. “And I think that’s what’s great about being where I’m at. I think that having those relationships with a lot of the other drivers and having the respect of your competitors in the garage is something that is hard to come by.” One of Harvick’s most unique and memorable wins came at the track “Too Tough To Tame” earlier that same year when NASCAR became the first professional sport to return to action after shutting down due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
