Back On Top

Okay,...It might be a little early to toot my own
horn, but after last years disastrous season I
have to act swiftly... As has been reported here
many times in the past, Kevin Harvick is my driver
on the NASCAR circuit. I was a longtime follower
of Dale Earnhardt, and when he died I just stayed
with the same team,...rather than jump to another
team just because the driver had a similar name.
To the point,... after three weeks of the 2010
season the cream has risen to the top. Harvick is
the points leader despite not winning a points race
yet. Proving the point that if you simply finish in the
top five or six cars that will enable you to stay at the
top of the points chase. Harvick finished seventh at
the Daytona 500 to open the season. Couple that with
back to back second place finishes at Fontana and this
past Sunday in Las Vegas. Despite first place wins by
reigning Champion Jimmy Johnson in Fontana and Vegas,
Johnson sits in fifth place thanks to a 35th place finish
at Daytona. Harvick's teammate, Clint Bowyer, is in
second place in the points race 46 markers behind. Mark
Martin is third 49 points back, and Matt Kenseth is 58
points back in fourth place.
The NASCAR drivers will be in Atlanta, Georgia (Hampton)
this coming Sunday for the fourth race of the season...and
the site of Harvick's first win of his NASCAR career.
